Description Andreas Nilsson 2008-10-29 10:13:35 UTC 
The process-idle and process-working should probably be a spinner (like we did in Firefox and tango-icon-theme) rather than a foot.
The foot just feels a bit like stupid-branding and looks out of place in most situations. It also seems like showing a foot in Thailand is considered about as nice as spitting someone in the face. [1]

index.theme file

modified to remove the references to animations in 24x24 and 48x48
Comment 3 Jakub Steiner 2009-01-26 15:44:35 UTC 
Commited in svn trunk.
Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2009-02-13 18:46:11 UTC 
i appreciate that you got rid of the silly foot animation, but can we please have a 48x48 spinner back ? gnome-packagekit relies on that...

Comment 6 Matthias Clasen 2009-03-07 03:15:50 UTC 
So, I need a little help here.

I don't know blender at all, but I was willing to give it a try. However, the blender that is packaged in Fedora just says "not a blender file" when I try to open it.
Comment 7 Rodney Dawes 2009-03-10 23:13:41 UTC 
Fixed in SVN.
