Gnome removed emblems support from Nautilus long ago. Thus, this bug is
no longer relevant.

Round orange emblems have lack usability
I've stumbled upon a strange thing about the emblems. Those applied by
some gnome magic to well-known directories like Music, Pictures etc.,
are positioned within the folder icon. Those that I try to apply myself
are positioned far beyond the upper right corner of the icon. Is this by
design?

For my own use, I felt in love with the emblems from Erectus-Human icon
set.
They consist in black circular background and grey foreground. They mix
nicely with the human icon set and are a bit similar in design to the
new notification icons. (included a screenshot)
While I really dislike the

I want to stress that this bug is so much of a problem that most Howto
and wiki now explain how to change the emblems.
I don't discuss the I-like-or-not fact, I insist that it's about
usability. I've exactly the same issue as the original reporter. The
Human icon them is not usable anymore.
I think this bug must remain open because people like me who are looking
for it will not find it if it's closed. And, logically, the problem
still persist and can be easily solved (see the proposed coloured
version in the comments). At least by providing an alternate Human theme

Hello!
Why is this one rejected if it could be fixed relatively easily? For me,
these icons lack usability and it's use does not significant enhance the
productivity (First, read the folder's name. Then understand the
emblem). The rest has been discussed very useful in the comments above.

That said, the current art and design final word is handled by sabdfl

Hi, merry X-Mas!
I like Jef's emblems although, but I think an emblem should be simple and
easy to read.
Photo realistic emblems would be a hard to identify, especially on higher
resolutions.
I know my emblems, have much room for improvements, but hey, good critic

Personally, I prefer the style of Jef's emblem icon set over the
current set to a rather sizable degree. They make use of an immediately
more recognizable image for each emblem and seem more integrated and
modern compared to other included graphics in the Distro.
Eric's 'colored' update is an
This emblem icon set is really nice, but the more I use it, the less I
enjoy it. What annoy me is, they are not very colorful and are all
circular, which makes them all looking like each others.
That is the reason why I created my own set of emblem icons (it is not
yet complete). You can see a
Very good work jef, i like these icons. But i think the the emblem

Hi,
Big thx for the good and bad words. I agree that usability and style are
often not related, but I think this should be a goal in the future.

Why are all these emblems round?.
There is one thing though (IMHO):
- the orange ones (screenshot above) look stylish and professional
- the old ones look unprofessional

I think Karoliina made a good point. Yes, usability and style are often

Just my 2 euro cents:
Eric, I find that your emblems are extremely professional and beautiful.
Good job! For the sake of UI consistency I'd prefer sole use of the

I agree, but not wholy.. I like the way icons are unified in a way, with
similar shapes, but still distinction between them in a way.. However, I

way you perceive the image as a whole..

I'm all in favor of placing the emblems on folders, they take less space

But my main concern is still shape and color of emblems.

Something I just noticed from looking at the orange emblems again, is
that the the lighting on them, makes them become a bit harder to look
at.. the example I posted before has a very faint gradual tint in the
round forms, but the glare on the orange emblems is really fat, which
makes it blend in
I totally agree. You can't distinct them.
