Hi again!

Here is my Impress logo proposal.  I didn't have time to do the template or
high contrast; if people like the proposal I will try and do them tomorrow.

 The 'mountain' image really stands out on this icon because the colors
 are so different (on the Writer icon, the sky in the image went well
 with the overall blue of the icon, as did the green). So, for this
 icon, I would suggest something like a pie graph, or just getting rid
 of the image altogether (unless you can find an image design that
 works well with Impress's oranges/brown colors?)

 One more suggestion: I think the inner rounded rectangle frame could
 be taller (going upward) by another 8-10 pixels on the 128x128 icon.
 Christoph's Writer icon [1] is taller in this respect and it would be
 good to have consistency in the size of the icon's inner
 emblems/symbols.


+1 on both of these.
As for the symbol, how about just a title and a big pie chart, maybe a
descriptive line of text below it (as presentations really shouldn't have
much text, because reading occupies the same part of the brain as listening,
whereas purely visual information occupies a different part).


 Regards,
 Ivan.
