Perhaps you could try to make the "X" read instead of the paper and use semitransparent/greyscale image below it on the paper to suggest that it's a (missing) image? Or perhaps try different metaphor? The gnome metaphor seems more suggestive to me than bluecurve (red X on a paper) or oxygen (red cancel sign on a paper). Also, since you are reworking first of the many icons containing the paper, it would be nice if you provided a template with only the paper on it, you can call it e.g. paper-template.svg or whatever. It would help in the future with finishing most of the mimetypes icons. We could add it to the guidelines. :-) Also the echo-new-icon script is set-up to look into ~/Templates for echo-one-canvas-template.svg first before using its own template - it really helps when creating bunch of icons all containing the same part, like envelope or paper ;-) I'll probably add a --template=PATH switch to some future version so that you can provide your own template without having to copy/rename it... > Reference: > [1] https://fedorahosted.org/echo-icon-theme/ticket/61 Martin
