Gentlepeople,
In [email protected] Tanstaafl <[email protected]> said, about OOo
3.2's icons:

Obviously someone on the OOo development team simply doesn't care how
badly they screw things up for users (as evidenced by the brain-dead
decision to switch from colored icons to greyscale)...
=== end quote ===
I have the latest (3.2.1, is that the latest?) OOo on Vista Home Premium and on Win XP Pro. The
icons are *not* greyscale, they are coloured. What am I missing, please.
As I understand it, the icons in question are those that represent the OOo component (that is,
those for Writer, Calc, etc.) -- not the ones in toolbars, for example. What do you see for these?
Not sure what you mean; I only have the Quickstarter in my System Tray and do everything from
there. Ah. If I create a shortcut on my desktop for, say, Writer then that shortcut has an icon
that is blue, white and grey. The icon is two circles. The larger is for Writer as opposed to Calc
or Impress or .... It is grey and white. The other, smaller circle partly overlaps the larger at
about 10 o'clock. It represents OOo (two birds) and is blue and white. The Calc shortcut has the
same smaller circle as Writer's but a different larger one although that too is grey and white. Is
this what the debate is about?
Yes, I think so. Part of the discussion has been about readily identifying individual documents on
the desktop or in folders with mixed content. They used to be easily differentiated by color, but
now they all look very similar.
