Hi Bill,
The icons are available the OB browser by overriding #browserIcon.
Some of the icons that you see are shipped with Seaside. The blueish
bubble denotes an announcement and is already present in Pharo.
Cheers,
Doru

Stef,
The first thing I notice in it is background colors, or is it just
variation in backlighting on my monitor? Have we evolved to the
point that background colors can be readily set? Last I looked into
it, there was mention of a background style that I could never find.
Another thing is that a large fraction of the classes have icons
associated with them. Dolphin makes that easy to do: just implement
a class-side #icon, which I always did in terms of a rich set of
class icons present in the base system, so I never had to mess with
the details. It would be nice if it were that easy in Pharo; when
well designed, such icons can aid perception. Since I constantly
praise Dolphin, I will point out that D6's use of apples for most
classes was not the best choice. It was visually grating and lead
to a rather unprofessional look in a deployed executable where I had
previously never given a second thought when the default icon was a
dot. A rich (and expendable) set of clean icons for collections/
composites, views, plugs/sockets, various metaphors that are easy to
associate with one's own classes would be helpful.
This might be similar to Dolphin's ability to apply multiple
categories to a method: you won't miss it if you have never had
access to it, but it is a *good* thing to have.
Bill
