Well, my response was a little longer than the one sentence you quoted and it did include my reasons to not accept any of the changes you suggested. When I looked at your mockup my first impression was that this dialog looks unbalanced, confusing and cluttered. That's of course a question of taste also, but it should make you think about whether your mockup is really an improvement. I think it isn't, for the reasons given. Your unpleasantly long mail also didn't convince me. It made me understand the reasons for adding the warning icon but with all the visual clutter it bring to the dialog, I don't see it being important enough to be added. I understand that you feel dismissed since you put some work into this but I think you should show the same respect to other people's work that you expect for your's. Sometimes things just don't work out and hours of work have to be thrown away. Happens every day. There's no reason to get pissy about that. Sven
