GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 468871
Tango icon for Baobab
Last modified: 2011-03-21 16:50:56 UTC
I'm not an artist, but here a first attempt to make a tango icon for baobab. Furthermore this icon doesn't show the external hard disk device, which is icon theme dependent.
Created attachment 94054 [details] baobab-icons.tar.bz2
Created attachment 94055 [details] preview.png
Created attachment 94142 [details] baobab.png lapo and pbor on IRC suggested to make the icon less flat and to remove the black borders around the pie chart. Here is a new attempt (just a preview png). Lapo suggested also to use a different metaphor, like a folder on a balance, since the pie chart isn't clear enough for the user.
Created attachment 94145 [details] preview.png Small icons still need some work.
Created attachment 94205 [details] baobab-icons.tar.gz Small icons (16 and 22/24 pixels versions) are now drawn with GIMP.
Created attachment 94206 [details] preview.png
Created attachment 94207 [details] baobab-icons.tar.gz Reworked a bit the 16x16 icon.

Created attachment 94226 [details] preview_new.png Lapo (thanks :) gave me a lot of suggestions to improve the icon on IRC. Here is a new preview.
This is great! Please, please get this in for GNOME 2.20 NOW ;) (this would also fix 463112)
Very good. I like it too.
*** Bug 463112 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
According to Lapo's advices I want to change a bit colours, but these days I have very few time to work on the icon. Anyway, not a big problem, since we are now in UI freeze.
the UI freeze is in effect, so you'll need to ask for a freeze break to apply the icon. I think it's safer to punt this for the next development cycle.
Any progress on this, Emmanuele?
Since we are on 2.22 devel cycle, it's time to close this bug.
Yeah, get it in! ;)
I can't do it before the weekend. Paolo, if you have some spare time before, get it in...
Paolo is out too. Wouter/Luca, could you pls commit to trunk?
Fabio, the icons need some more love (mainly the smallest ones) and I didn't implement all suggestions Lapo gave me on IRC. I really have very few spare time these days, so if there is around any artist who wants to give some help :)
Well, I think we should forward this bug to Andre, Jimmac or Lapo, they might fix the icon for us.
Any news on this? Luca?
