If talking about the Debian package ones, they are the one distributed upstream, I needed to quickly resize them to be lintian clean. The fact is that the ones you proposed are smoother and look better, at least under my Linux Desktop. > Perhaps we just need a broader >collection of icons and the packager can choose which one is the most >appropriate one. Why not, although I think we should all try to get something quite similar under all archs/OS so that users get the same reference in mind when invoking pgAdmin III.

On a KDE desktop, these new icons (the PNG ones) look "perfect" whereas the existing ones look "terrible". Perhaps we just need a broader collection of icons and the packager can choose which one is the most appropriate one. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

Maybe you can apply a gray smoothing in the background. To achieve this, you can duplicate the layer, apply gaussian blur, make it 20% transparent and move the resulting layer to the background. As I do not run MS Windows, I cannot garantee results under Win32, just a thought... Cheers, Jean-Michel ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
