I'm not sure how much I'll be participating but I want to make sure that the icon work we do at Sun is staying aligned to Tango in some aspects.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>WRT the File Roller action icons, I would suggest using the down and up arrows in combination with the cardboard box for the actions 'add' and 'extract' respectively. The plus sign / box combo would seem to suggest adding and archive, not adding something TO the archive. The arrows should definitely be up / down and not left / right and it's more clear if the box is open. New and Open should be the default tango icons as suggested by others. I think 'view' should be an eye as opposed to a magnifying glass as the later also suggests the actions 'find' and 'zoom'. Neither of those are the same as view and therefore to use a mag glass for all of them would dilute the symbolism of that glyph.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Cheers, m.</DIV><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 11.0px Helvetica; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">Mike Stern</SPAN></FONT></P><P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" style="font: 11.0px Helvetica; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">mike</SPAN></FONT><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 11.0px Helvetica; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">.<A href="mailto:stern@sun.com">stern@sun.com</A></SPAN></FONT></P><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN> </DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On Jun 2, 2006, at 4:47 PM, Jones Lee wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">I have contacted him and here is a general mockup that he agrees on.
