Just something else i just noticed. The screen inside that monitor is missing something.. something like an inside border (don't know how that's called).. The thing i mean is that the screen itself (the flat panel) and the outline seem to be on the same depth now (no shadows) while the screens themselves normally are pushed back a little in the casing creating some kind of bevel(?). I hope you can do something with this vague suggestion.. really hard to explain when you don't know how it's called ^_^ i will see if i can change something in this screen in the weekend (no promises!) Another thing i noticed (in firefox when clicking on the SVG) is that the text on the keyboard looks really strange and so black... i think that should be changed a bit to dark gray. And perhaps a completely different idea for a monitor (the one i'm looking at right now while typing this) http://www.samsung.com/nl/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=computersperipherals&type=monitors&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS20PEBSFV/EDC# a black monitor! (since you tend to be liking every icon in a darker theme anyway). The design of that monitor is nice and would fit perfectly with a black keyboard as well. And the keyboard i use : http://www.3t.hu/images/Logitech%20ultra%20flat.jpg remake both in icon style and you will probably have a perfect icon for: - Monitor - Keyboard - Desktop - and all that have a monitor and/or a keyboard in them 2009/3/10 Martin Sourada <martin.sourada@xxxxxxxxx>: > On Tue, 2009-03-10 at 11:02 +0100, Mark wrote: >> That icon looks.. odd >> If you ask me the lightest part of the keyboard is lighter then the >> lightest part os the screen. >> The darkest part of the keyboard is most certainly a lot lighter then >> the darkest part of the screen.
