The icons are still 24x24. MacOSX has (had?) the same problem - it allocates a 24x24 button to draw the icon on. Our old icons *data* (non-transparent parts) was more like 21x21 instead of closer to the 24x24 actual icon size. Make your buttons 26x26 or something like that and this will go away. > On recent Win32 builds, it looks like these are bigger and beefier.

The overwhelming majority of people in Unix and Mac land like the new icons (even my windows-using friends agree). Everyone polled on IRC likes the new icons. I spoke up before even with a screenshot of what Abi would look like with the new icons (including a warning saying that I would upgrade abi in the near future to use these said icons: http://www.mail-archive.com/abiword-dev%40abisource.com/msg18841.html), and it go 0 replies. You spoke up too late. I'm not CVS reverting my checkin. Dom /stickler
