Hi all,

following the icon discussion for only a couple of I days, I don't know the 
main intention for the icon design. 

If you would like to understand what users like and understand best, I can 
offer that we conduct an icon test [1] with a set of icon suggestions.

Could that be helpful to foster the discussion?

Best,
Björn

Hi all,

I created first versions of Writer icons in different sizes and uploaded
them to the wiki:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding/Mimetype_Icons/Proposa
ls#Bernhard_Dippold

(I didn't want to mess around on Christoph's User page, therefore
uploaded these icons to the proposals page - Christoph, do you want to
move this page to a public area:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:ChristophNoack/Initial_MIME_Icons ?)

While the document/application icons might work even in small sizes,
they are not easy to discriminate from the template icons, when they use
the same color for their borders. Removing the unfolded corner in the
16x16 icon changes the visual impression too much IMHO (last icon in the
second line)

Following Christoph's proposal I changed the color of the template icon
borders to grey.

Do you think this works better?

Are these icons too colorless (reminding myself at the ODF icons...)?

Thoughts ? Opinions ?

Do you want me to go on with this design working on the other mimetype
icons? (Or is anybody interested to help me - not much more than C&P in
Inkscape ?)

Best regards

Bernhard
