In the days that you made the current mail icon i said that it looked "ugly" and so not mail like (maybe not in those words but that was the result) And i suggested better looking (more realistic) envelope icons. You where highly against it! Now you made new ones in basically the style i suggested which kinda stuns me because of your (at that time) definitive NO. So what did change your mind? Also something i notice recently.. This icon theme is really going towards the Oxygen icon theme which make me wonder something else: Why not stop making those nice icons and use the oxygen icon theme? If needed adjust that theme to the fedora needs. My guess is that you will be done a lot faster with this theme if you do it that way. _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
