I'll create a new bug.

Okay, but somehow or other we need to come to a decision. Let me try to break it
down:

 * We seem to have agreed on the font -- both variants use Arial Black
 * We seem to have agreed that an arrow is appropriate for the download button
 * We seem to have agreed that the buttons need a black outline

List of things we haven't agreed on (accompanied by my opinions):

 * The actual arrow used. Personally I prefer mine -- the colour is another
thing to be discussed but I prefer the shape of mine.
 * Background colour -- I think the focus should be the contents of the button,
not its background. That's why I chose to use blue.
 * Text colour, although I think this is rather dependant on the background colour
 * Browse icon -- all things considered, I quite like the use of the OCAL icon
for this. It seems most appropriate, especially given how difficult it is to
convey with an icon!

I think the most important ones in this list is the background colour and the
browse icon.
