Hello!
Why is this one rejected if it could be fixed relatively easily? For me,
these icons lack usability and it's use does not significant enhance the
productivity (First, read the folder's name. Then understand the
emblem). The rest has been discussed very useful in the comments above.
Just
There are many people, some with art and design degrees, who have issues
with some of Ubuntu's chosen implementations across everything from
Wallpaper to Icons to menu layouts.
That said, the current art and design final word is handled by sabdfl
himself. He chose to integrate the emblems. It
I've finally managed to create some mock-ups of what I think would be
good emblems (see attachment emblems-mockup.png). They are not in any
way for real use, I just used stock icons to show my idea.
Some highlights:
- emblems have different color (the purpose of the bug)
- emblems have mostly
Hi, merry X-Mas!
I like Jef's emblems although, but I think an emblem should be simple and
easy to read.
Photo realistic emblems would be a hard to identify, especially on higher
resolutions.
I know my emblems, have much room for improvements, but hey, good critic
will have a good solution. On
Personally, I prefer the style of Jef's emblem icon set over the
current set to a rather sizable degree. They make use of an immediately
more recognizable image for each emblem and seem more integrated and
modern compared to other included graphics in the Distro.
Eric's 'colored' update is an
This emblem icon set is really nice, but the more I use it, the less I
enjoy it. What annoy me is, they are not very colorful and are all
circular, which makes them all looking like each others.
That is the reason why I created my own set of emblem icons (it is not
yet complete). You can see a
Very good work jef, i like these icons. But i think the the emblem
character decrease a lot with them. Personally i think emblems should
have a consistent shape, for a better use as an emblem. Different shapes
have a symbol with symbol character.

Hi,
Big thx for the good and bad words. I agree that usability and style are
often not related, but I think this should be a goal in the future.
Back to the emblems, I think the round shape is an important thing to
identifying emblems as emblems. The colors will be changed and I have a

Hi,
I'm the developer of these emblems and agree with some points of critic.
I have created a colored preview of these emblems and it would be nice, when u
will write a comment about that.

Why are all these emblems round?.
There is one thing though (IMHO):
- the orange ones (screenshot above) look stylish and professional
- the old ones look unprofessional
I think the fact that they are ugly has nothing to do with their usability and
usability of stylish
graphics should be improved instead of replacing the new
I think Karoliina made a good point. Yes, usability and style are often
not related. The original point of the bug is that current emblems are
stylish but not usable (or not so much usable). That's why I suggested
that we can improve usability even by returning old Gnome icons. But
sure we all
Just my 2 euro cents:
Eric, I find that your emblems are extremely professional and beautiful.
Good job! For the sake of UI consistency I'd prefer sole use of the
orange emblems, but as many people seem to think they are not so usable,
I took a look at your preview of the coloured emblems and I

I agree, but not wholy.. I like the way icons are unified in a way, with
similar shapes, but still distinction between them in a way.. However, I
think it also has something to do with the placement of the emblems, the
way you perceive the image as a whole..
As i see it, when you look at it, you
I'm all in favor of placing the emblems on folders, they take less space
this way. In fact they used to do this in Breezy but changed it in
Dapper.
But my main concern is still shape and color of emblems.

Something I just noticed from looking at the orange emblems again, is
that the the lighting on them, makes them become a bit harder to look
at.. the example I posted before has a very faint gradual tint in the
round forms, but the glare on the orange emblems is really fat, which
makes it blend in
I totally agree. You can't distinct them.
