Ok,
Figured I break this out into a separate thread, to get all ideas and
thoughts about possible icons sets. Now in the past I put together a set,
can be found on TheShire. I am not pushing it, just restating since I see
alot of comments that this set applies to; color-blind friendly,
corporate
friendly, recent icons attract the eye. So this is what is presently
available if you want them. I am not sure of the state of the archive on
TheShire, I have created a few new icons for a special project. If there
is
interest, I can create a complete icon set (some are missing, they aren't
used much; circle with question mark in it). I have included a screenshot
in this email to give you a sampling. Also, I think past feedback
suggested
the pulsing might be better if slower, again if there is interest I can
implement that & provide an update icon set archive.
Some thoughts.
Green is ok, so a static icon is fine: keep the smiley.
Red / Orange is bad, so a pulsing or changing icon for atracting attention.
A
red smiley with the shape like the stop road sign pulsating to an X. An
orange smiley with a triangle shape plusating to a - or _. Red pulsating
faster then orange.
For the other colors, the shape is not that important.
Who knows a good program for creating animated icons for linux ?
