I have uploaded a second (high resolution) draft showing a possible color scheme [1]. The current LibreOffice green is the same. My suggestion is to have one 'off' color for each set to add some flavor. So, for green, there's lime, for blue it's something light headed toward aqua, for maroon it's pink... whether it works or not is for you all to decide :) [1] http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:LibreOffice_Mimetype_Icon_Draft2_Ivan.png The Impress mimetype symbol needs consideration (you had a rounded rectangle), as well as what to with detail when the icons get larger (more detail would be nice, and that's the case with the new OOo mimetype icons... but I don't have the time to work on it now). The symbols are an important part in the icon design and probably another discussion in themselves. >> and since the colors at [1] already correspond to >> application colors: blue for writer, green for calc, etc, it'd be nice >> to get that continuity in the color pallet (though that might make >> people think that Calc is the main program in the office suite :P). > > That has been the main reason to propose to add the Yellow (now included in > the color table).

I agree, I just thought it was interesting :) Regards, Ivan. -- E-mail to marketing+h...@libreoffice.org for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/marketing/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
