App Icon updates for 3.38
There are a few core app icons I'd like to improve for 3.38, in particular:
-
Web -- The mirrored cursor is bad (issue) -
Software -- The whole thing feels too flat and the perspective doesn't work -
Notes -- It's a yellow blob -
Image Viewer -- The loupe is not very recognizable -
2048 -
Cheese -- The smile is confusing and a bit creepy, and the colors don't look that great. I'd be interested in trying a photobooth icon (then we could also rename it to Photo Booth), but I'm open to other ideas. -
Usage -- It's a bit boring -
Settings -- the gear feels cartoonish in its proportions -
Music -- maybe we should try and get away from the speaker metaphor -
Gedit -- boring, little contrast, the huge pencil looks a bit crudeWith the new nice text editor on the way, maybe let's let this one be shitty? -
Weather -- Contrast between the yellow and white could be better. Perhaps a darker yellow? -
Calculator -- The one we merged last cycle is too complex, we should simply (issue)
Apps which don't have a new-style icon at all yet:
Also, some apps still don't have new releases with the new icon:
