Hi,
More color is a great idea.
Some transparency in the color adds slickness and some reflection adds
polish, going by the current trends and aesthetics.
Tools-> Options -> View -> Icon Size and style does give some choice.
I like the 'Galaxy' icons.
Regards,
Paul

We've been discussing the omission of color pretty thoroughly since the
OOobranding was changed, but it seems that it lead to... nothing. Is
the lackof color in application icons and file icons final? Could we
have anofficial vote on this?I think this is a topic important enough
to really pay attention to(especially now that we're nearing release),
because it could really, reallybring down the usability of OOo.P. S.
The best office suite icons I've seen come from the elementary iconpack
(http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Elementary+Icons?content=73439),w
hich color the entire icon with a particular color and puts a nice
bigsymbol in the middle (like notes for a sound file, or a W for a Word
file).It's really easy to pick out the right files that way and it
looks reallygreat.-- This is a site which donates money to a custom
