Whenever possible, we should have theme-appropriate icons (e.g., yellow on black icons). We should make a note that implementers are expected/encouraged to provide these for their users. I'll provide the ones necessary for UIO. I don't think it's generally a good solution to replace icons (or images generally) with their text alternatives as: a) it can be confusing for the visual user to see text where images were intended, particularly when the layout and positioning of elements is affected, and b) icons are often already accompanied by equivalent text labels. But, until we can come up with a more appropriate solution, we can stick with the "icons replaced by text alternatives when no contrast-appropriate icons are present". I'd love to hear the community's thoughts on this one. > 2) Does the "header" line of the widgets look ok? Some themes seems to > "invert" the colour scheme of the body, others do not.
