</div>Awesome , I think we'd have one for panel icons by the end of the UX<br>
sprint.<br>
<br>
When doing the icons for Karmic , One color didnt fit both the light and<br>
dark panels :/<br>
I had to do twice the work for humanity and humanity-dark. Was a real<br>
pain . </rant off ><br>
<br>
I'm really trying to push this idea><br>

<br>
This [-symbolic idea] is the best solution. That way the text will match<br>
the color of the icons.<br>
<br>
Other than the Panel , there are other places where such monochromatic<br>
icons can be used in the system too.<br>
<br>
The color apart , the icon sizes on the gnome-look are a huge problem .<br>
I'v tried to keep a consistent icon padding , so that we dont have<br>
problems of different icon sizes.<br>
And using fill for the icons just makes the icons appear too dark and as<br>
blotches.<br>
<br>
Just to mention a few, Once the sprint is over and the UX team mentions<br>
how they are implementing it.. We can start on completing the<br>
<div>guidelines.<br><br></div></blockquote><div><br>Excellent. And thanks for the feedback in the blueprint.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>Cool ,<br>
But the UX folks had us remove all the app specific icons :/<br>
Not sure if its allowed again...<br>
<br>
For Karmic itself , we wanted to to do the monochrome icon for the<br>
Ubuntu logo and kwwii said no..<br>
Now, he is all excited once it was posted on the web ;p<br>
<br>
Maybe similarly, we can add more app icons too... ;) Kenneth ?<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Oh, OK, didn't know that.<br>I understand about the Rhythmbox icon but accessories-dictionary it's an icon from the FreeDesktop spec.<br>Anyway, I guess that have their reasons.<br><br> </div>

In the dictionary icon , the alphabets could be etched-in rather than<br>
being raised.<br></blockquote><div><br>OK, I'll do that and I send it out to you. It's that OK?<br></div><div></div></div>-- <br>Seba (AKA spg76)<br><a href="http://www.ubuntu-ar.org" target="_blank">http://www.ubuntu-ar.org</a><br>
