Hi all...
before going any further, let me just say that I'm not out to start a
flame war or put hard working people down. I want to bring this forward
to ensure everybody's favorite distro is appealing as it deserves "out
of the box".
Am I alone in thinking that some of the icons and the default mouse
cursors appearing in rawhide could really use a redesign or should just
be replaced with something else?
Perhaps these are only temporarily, which i really hope, but just in
case they are not, i wanted to see if perhaps it's just me.
The two main things that have come to my attention (mainly because it
pretty much hits you on login) are the new fedora logos and the new
default mouse cursor theme.
This is my opinion on the mouse cursor theme:
** the default mouse cursor theme should be neutral (no colors, subtle
animation), good looking and functional.
Although used by some other distributions, Jimmac's jimmac0 (if that's
indeed the right name) mouse cursors makes for a very nice choice for
the default mouse cursor theme.
This is my opinion regarding the icons
** all the icons appearing on the default desktop, should be
informational, good looking and in a consistent design - Just like all
of the icons in the bluecurve theme.
The new fedora-logo does not fit in with the rest and IMHO should be
either reconsidered or redesigned.
I hope I'm not the only one feeling like this.
And I hope we will be able to have all this sorted out before FC5 is
released.
Thanks
/Thomas
