Description Luca Cavalli 2006-05-03 22:59:45 UTC 
The icon used for continuous mode (stock_new-master-document) doesn't represent well its function. Something remembering a continuous paper sheet should probably be used, like:

http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/gnome-icon-theme/24x24/stock/generic/stock_toilet-paper.png?rev=1.1

OK, maybe another icon would be better :)

Surely toilet paper is not acceptable ;) Feel free to suggest other variant.

I'm not a graphic artist, nonetheless I tried to draw this icon (I just took parts from other icons). I'm not sure about the resulting effect :)

I have reworked the other icon submitted to make this. It tries to seem a continuous paper.

Hey guys, nice paintings, but probably it's better to ping jimmac about that. Just to make graphics consistent with Tango.

Indeed my previous icon didn't follow tango style, since I started from an old GNOME icon. I made a new icon trying following tango guidelines (well, copying a tango icon), but, sure, it is better to add Jimmac to CC list :)

Last icon looks nice, but there is no border on the top and on the bottom :( Still waiting for gnome-icon-theme to include something useful.
