Re: Some suggestions
by Shadowfiend on Saturday 19/Apr/2008, @07:11
It bears pointing out that:
* Krita basically is a pencil on a canvas in a circle,
* A play button, when talking about office apps, isn't a particularly bad symbol for a presentation program,
* W is bsaically the symbol used for MS Word, so obviously using that is a recognizable shape (though the fact that it is shared between those two programs might not be good).
* The KChart icon basically *ιs* a small chart, it just has one line on it.

Basically, all the applications seem to evoke evither their function or their name (Kugar, for example, has a pair of whiskers, basically). The only one that is a little weird in that regard is KPlato (as pointed out elsewhere, even KFormula has a square root).
