No one seems to have raised any issues yet with the icon sample I posted, so if you're happy with it, and I get no other feedback, I'll turn it into a SVG at end of tomorrow (though I may also try a version with a looking-glass partially over the image frame). The one you sent looked quite nice enough.

My inkscape skills are horrible, so I did not dare try to modify the icon of the the helloworld activity ;-). -sdg- Just mock-ups for review, these are not svg format yet (I usually hand code the svg to keep cruft to a minimum). Any strong opinions out there regarding the design? One thing I am on the fence about is inclusion of a spy-glass, hanging over the bottom right of frame. That would say more 'viewer activity' and less 'image file', which is where this is closer to just now. However, adding a spy-glass would make the icon more fussy and require I ditch most of the picture detail (ending up more of a rectangle + spy-glass and maybe corner of a mountain/sun/ something). inline: image-viewer-scratch-work-small.gifinline: image-viewer-scratch-work-medium.gifinline: image-viewer-scratch-work-large.gif Feedback welcome (as I don't see much Sugar related visual design discussed going on around here). --Gary ___ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
