Vish, thank you, those icons are your usual exemplary standard. :-) However, the main purpose of the error alert is to explain to you what just went wrong. Sending an error report is a secondary issue, and sometimes it's not even possible at all. An administrator may block all users from sending error reports, but the error alerts will still appear. So it would be incongruous for the alert to have an icon based on the idea of sending information.
So the idea of the crashed paper plane is to represent something going wrong, calmly but not frivolously. Similar ideas include a banana peel, a splat, and a broken window. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1079639 Title: Icons for error alerts are hokey To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/apport/+bug/1079639/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
