Well i believe the ribbon could have been created with smaller icons, but microsoft chose to use 32x32 icons and above for icons which need more emphasis. > Gnome doesn't have its own ordered list icon -- the LibreOffice one was > designed by me. Thanks for designing them. I'm currently modifying them and will have Alex create the svgs. > BTW, it'd be great to share our icons with projects like these.

Yes it would be great to contribute something back to them in they are interested in having it, though i think they would also want larger sizes as well. :D > > Though i have Word 2007, i add the save icon to the top bar, i never click > > on the office icon to have seen the purple there, but do use the MS snipping > > tool and see they are using the purple floppy icon there ( > > http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/images/Vista/snipping_tool.jpg ). > > OK. > Would you be okay with purple, then?

Microsoft's icons are great, though. :) I liked the solid gray metal part as it stands out well against the purple. :D > The actual Gnome save icon uses a green arrow symbol over a file cabinet, > but it was rejected by the team after Bjorn Balazs's research showed it > wasn't easily recognizable. Yes i've seen the gnome save icons of the arrow in the cabinet and didnt think it was very understandable. Atleast original tango was using a hard disk. :D Well about the save as icon, i think we should stick with the pencil, as that is what is used pretty much everywhere and we can pull the pencil from the find & replace icon and add it to the purple floppy. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
