Hello,
He also note that "ssh", "ftp" are disturbing. Especially for tiny
icons. The sharp orange label are too agressive.
I like the tangerine icons, but I don't agree with the above. I
like the
"ssh", "ftp" and others, because it's informative and (IMHO) isn't
disturbing.
Remember that's just an extern point of view, my father's one. Who is
clueless of smb, dav, ftp and friends, even if he use oftenly smb. He
is going to use dav and even ssh as it just appear in his file
manager with avahi/zeroconf. The anduilos icon is the Mac OS X ssh
server on my iMac (named anduilos). User prefer "bersace's public
file" instead of ssh, and other technical stuffs. That's just a fact.
Yes, I'm with you in that. Maybe we could think in a solution which mix
the two point of views (newbie and intermediate/advanced).
I also appreciate info label for protocols and formats (odt, etc.),
but i dislike the orange used for those label. Far too sharp. I also
dislike the text in 16x16 icons. That's just annoying.
Mmmm... What about brown or dark-yellow for that?
What I would prefer is brown folders, because there is too much orange
in my desktop and my nautilus.
It is the same of title bars. They were too orange at first, and know
they are brown again. I include a folder example.
About labels, I would prefer small icons to show the type of file:
- a blue W in a blue square for ms word files.
- a green X in a green square for excel.
- a small gull for openoffice files.
- a window logo for samba
- a globe for ftp
- a key for ssh
- a console for .sh
- a debian icon in the package for .deb.
- a red hat for in the package for .rpm.

Hi!
About samba, ssh, ftp etc.
If you take a look at
http://xoomer.virgilio.it/bat/orango-tango/status.png you can see that
lapo already created those, but they are not in tangerine (yet). Right
now, all the icons in tangerine follows the names in icon-naming-spec,
but I'll start polluting tangerine with various applications icons
really soon anyway, so I think those will get in at some point or another.
