Hm, although it respects Caleb's hints, I don't quite like either proposal. Looking at it, it doesn't suggest "invitation" at all, but mailserver configuration (which we actually do have in the "General" administrative category). A good option would be to actually make a new category for the mailserver settings and use one of these icons. Searching for "Invitation" on Google Image Search, I noticed two things: - invitation envelopes have a ribbon + knot on them, and they don't usually get sent via landmail (thus no stamps nor postal markings) - invitations start with handwritten "You're Invited" (see http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:7DmaO_QbCcmK0M:http://www.misquincemag.com/cm/misquincemag/images/quinceanera-invitation-xlg.jpg for an example) So, a suggestion would be to eliminate the stamp and instead use a ribbon around the envelope. Another suggestion would be to use an open envelope and a letter with You're Invited on it. Also, I'm not sure the XWiki (SAS) logo should be there, since normally people using XWiki don't see that logo, so it's a bit confusing. > On Tue, Jun 15, 2010 at 4:42 PM, Caleb James DeLisle< > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Cool. >> >> The invitation application sends email to people and invites them to join >> the wiki. >> If it's a closed wiki then the email may grant authority to join. >> I was thinking something with an envelope and a postmark or something like >> that. >> I'm sure you will come up with something great. >> -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
