Yes, i made some actions (Web Browser, Mediaplayer, and so on.) I used some default icon for these Actions, what came with the CDE. Later i tried to change the icons, and save again, but it cannot update the existing Action, but make a new one.

If you start Skype, it doenst check if there is any another running instance, and it will start a new one. You can found the old one on the system tray. But there is no tray support in CDE, thats why you cannot se the running instances. System Tray support also must have feature. There is a mockup for that: http://kepfeltoltes.hu/121015/cde_systray_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.png What do you think about this? >> - Icon support: i'd like to see better icon support, with more format, >> not just xpm and xbm.

I'm also like the retro icons, and the pixmaps, but you know, the linux packages in synaptic doenst have pixmap icons anymore (FIXME!), and it takes a lot of time to make a 48px, 32px and 16 px icon for every app what you want to use. > >> - Panel : For the love of God, please, digital clock!
