Tobias, I apologize for replying to your personal address. Here's to the
list.

IMHO it is just a waste of space because it is not a good indicator for
a drop target. Not one of the ppl I showed it - all of them designers -
recognized it as a drop target and, frankly, the image in there is
simply wrong. If we need to make it recognizable as a drop target, we
need to make it a drop target icon, that's all. A Wilber background
image tha doesn't even show up entirely is a poor indicator. It looks
more as a - ugly, but that's debatable - decoration than anything else.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't have a drop target in the toolbox
window, but that it should be more obvious and take less space from the
tools that are the main function of the window.

Regards,

Flávio.

He is there, to indicate that the toolbox is an drop area for images.
Like the Wilbert in the empty window.

Tobias
