Description Nicholas Smith 2005-09-07 00:37:10 UTC 
The evolution icon in gnome is very hard to see clearly on an LCD screen
(laptop).  On my ubuntu breezy system this icon is located at:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/evolution.svg

Would suggest that maybe the edges be made darker / bolder, or darken the colors
used.  Right now the icon tends to blend in with the gray background of the
panel (using default ClearLooks theme).  The clock on the icon stands out well,
maybe use those colors on the envelope and use an alternate coloring for the
clock.  

I have no art skills or I would have fixed it myself :)

the icons also comes in 16x16 and 24x24 versions. My ubuntu hoary panel uses
24x24 icons. Can you try updating your gnome-icon-theme and make a screenshot of
your theme/panel?

http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/gnome-icon-theme/24x24/apps/evolution.png

is what you should be getting.

I think this is about a scalable version renderd at small size.
