GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 160031
Artwork
Last modified: 2005-08-03 17:35:09 UTC
The icons for the cpufreq applet are not clearly enough. I've made new ones based on the icons proposed by Pat Suwalski for the wireless applet. I think they are more clear and more representative of the function of the applet.

Great work! I like the icons mainly because the useful information (the progress bar) is bigger and is in the front now. It makes the progress bar more precise and visible. Davyd, thoughts?
It's got a lot of merit, but I am not an artist (at all) so I will CC Jimmac to check that it all looks nice and happy and HIGgy and such.
I also find these useful, and I'd like to use them for 2.10 if possible. Jakub, any comments?
Still waiting on the comments of an artist.
I wouldn't mind touching up the cpu a little (the extra pixels on the "legs"). It tricks the eye into thinking the light comes from all different sides. But overall it's way above the average art submissions. I'd let it in.
Cool. At the moment, these icons are installed in $prefix/pixmaps/cpufreq, would it be worth having these icons added to the icon theme so that they are themable in the usual way?
If there's a chance for the icons to be used in other applications, go for it. But I'm not sure myself.
So, can I submit the new icons?
Carlos, I say go for it, just put them in place of the current pixmaps. We can decide on stock icon names later on, and play with them then.
Ok, done. I think we also need an icon for the applet (the icon that appears in the about dialog)
This was committed.
