Re: New Oxygen logout icon

I have to agree with DanaKil. The colors are far to bright; they don't fit in with the other Oxygen icons or the dark Plasma theme at all. I think the artists should ditch the idea that log out, shutdown, restart, etc. should all have the same shape. Or if they don't, at least keep the cool round shape and add the color to the symbols on the buttons, rather than make the whole button colored.

Here's an example of what I mean: http://wmhilton.googlepages.com/my-KDE4-system-log-out2.png

I'm not an artist, so it doesn't look very good, but that's the idea I'd like to see used instead of the square buttons. If this can't be done before KDE 4.0 is tagged today, then maybe for 4.1.

Hmmm, I think I kind'a agree with you. I found the logout buttons to be very in-your-face as well... Probably a 4.1 thing, indeed.
