GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 561861
Missing status/user-online icon
Last modified: 2009-11-19 16:09:26 UTC
We should provide "user-online" named icon. This is a high priority task now that Empathy IM client is officially in GNOME Desktop. However, please take a look at this[1] bug against icon naming utils, asking to rename this icon as "user-available". [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18658
Created attachment 124008 [details] status-online proposed icons I created a user-online (or user-available[1]) icon based on Lapo's test[2]. [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18658 [2] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-themes-list/2008-November/msg00010.html
Isn't this green too bright?
Is it? In my monitor, it looks ok. I'll try in some other screen.
On my screen is it much brighter than, for example, Pidgin's "online" icon. I think, too much.
Created attachment 124454 [details] proposed icons revised Yes, it was really brighter. Better?
Much better. Thank you :) !
While I think this proposal I send based on lapo's metaphors isn't bad at all and might work right, I'm not sure if it is the best option. Considering also that others status icons must be done, the drawings needs to have a minimum of similarity. So, seems that more discussion is needed to fix this bug.
Is this work stuck? Can you provide a tarball with all the status icons you designed?
Created attachment 135593 [details] Current icon preview I changed idea once again (well after some testing of the various options we had - yes I did several icons regarding user statusses never published 'cause not convincing for me), anyway new user status icons are in g-i-t trunk, preview here.
They are really beautiful, my compliments! Does empathy need a patch now?
(In reply to comment #9) > ... anyway new user status icons are in g-i-t trunk, Not master but one-canvas, so they won't make it into GNOME 2.28 bit 2.30/3.0 most likely.
Any chance to have these icons merged to master for 2.30? We'd like to use them in Empathy (bug #602420).
