True, in fact I think it is important to have distinctive icons but all kind of homogeneous. Reusing elements of other icons (done for some) is not such a great idea. coping a whole already present icon and add a camera is maybe not such a good idea.
it is a 26px by 26 pixel icon, you cant really fit much stuff in it. Current script icon is a terminal that suggest a scripting. Is it really necessary to tell that it is a python scripting? cheers Fabrizio On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 12:45 AM, Nick Østergaard <[email protected]> wrote: > IMHO the old icon with the camera was not bad at all, but this "a" is very > easy to distinguish from from the others which can also be an advantage. > > Regarding the py_script, I wonder why not simply use the python logo, > maybe with the shell icon in the background as [1]. > > [1] http://www.linuxcandy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/python-icon.jpg > > > 2014-02-12 0:23 GMT+01:00 Fabrizio Tappero <[email protected]>: > >> Hi JP, >> I am very tempted to make an icon that simply tells what the app does >> without really explaining that the output can be used for schematics as >> well as pcb.... see attachment if you like.
