One of the implementation ideas, discussed on irc: <pbor> I was more inclined toward the solution where the provider is only used for downloading and browsing custom images <pbor> but the actual code in the iconview etc is not aware of the providers <pbor> it just sees an additional "image" property in the serialized setting <pbor> and loads it from file <pbor> falling back to the default night and day image if the property is not set or the file not present <pbor> the providers would only be used from the standalone "setup" dialog and when adding a new clock, to browse images and pick one <pbor> once you pick one it is downloaded and saved locally <pbor> so only the setup dialog would "speak" with the providers <pbor> but maybe your idea is better, I have to think about it <pbor> mine is more conservative and less intrusive for the current code
The new design got rid of that feature.
