We talked about your latest mockups for the system-config-kickstart icon
at today's meeting. Here's some points we hope will help:

- the whole arm & monitor is hard to make out at 16x16. the lines aren't
snapped to the pixel grid - because there aren't enough pixels in 16x16
to snap the artwork cleanly.

- the metaphor of a robot building a computer might still work at 16x16
if you show only the claw/hand of the robot + the monitor at that size.
The icon could expand to show the full arm at larger sizes that could
accommodate it.

- maybe show some light or sparkles emanating from the box/computer to
show that it is coming to life? we want to show the robot is making the
computer, not just moving it, if that makes sense.

What do you think?
