Artwork/F8Themes/IconReview Fedora 8 Icon Review

Fedora 8 Icon Review

As of September 15 in Fedora Test 2+, here are the issues in F8's icons.

APPLICATIONS > GRAPHICS

• gthumb icon looks blurry. the artwork itself would probably look fine if it wasn't so blurred.
• actually the fedora icon looks slightly blurry too - it looks like it is not aligned to the pixel grid.

APPLICATIONS > INTERNET

• 'blog entry poster' icon looks... pretty bad. I think this one needs actual artwork.
• Contacts icon looks blurry, the artwork would probably look fine if it wasn't blurred.
• Email icon looks blurry. There should be an alternative icon for this in the gnome-icon-theme though, an image of an envelope. I'm guessing this is some kind of icon theme/packaging issue?
• Ekiga icon looks blurry. The artwork would be okay if it wasn't blurry.

(Xchat gnome appears in screenshot and is blurry but is not included in default install.)

APPLICATIONS > OFFICE

• Abiword icon looks blurry. There is likely alternate artwork for this somewhere.
• Gnumeric icon looks blurry. There is likely alternate artwork for this as well.
• Tasks icon looks blurry. I know there is an icon for this in the gnome icon theme but it seems to only be in the 24x24 dir, but a 22x22 one could be easily made...

APPLICATIONS > SOUND & VIDEO

• CD player icon is blurry. The artwork doesn't really match the theme either.

APPLICATIONS > SYSTEM TOOLS

• Bluetooth analyzer - would probably be ok if not so blurry.
• Bluetooth filesharing - would probably be ok if not so blurry.
• disk management - would probably be ok if not so blurry.
• disk usage analyzer - would probably be ok if not so blurry.
• gparted - would probably be ok if not so blurry.
