Early Alpha Speed Test 1

Hi,

The Lite icons have a black square background on purpose, to differenciate them from the other system icons.

They could have Rounded corners but putting them in a circle (MAC style) could be problematic and some would have to be redone.

But, I could suggest that they could be dark-gray-rounded-corner-squares + a-limited-color-palette.
Yeeeah! (see the movie Office Space for reference on how to say this word )I realize that putting ideas into word is not really obvious, so here :



MS Paint Power! Took ridicously too long to do, should have download/installed a "real" paint program, would've taken less time. :-S

I mean the ones with the black background. I believe I have more than a week of using the system, and my opinion has not changed, it is the best Linux distro I have ever used. The icons with black background https://ibb.co/9vBqfDY

I agree with you about the black-background icons. I think most of those in your example would look better if they were transparent. But, I would have never thought about it unless you mentioned it. Some of them, (Lite Dekstop, Lite Info) might make sense with the black background because they're a square in a square. But, I agree, some (like Lite Auto Login, Lite Network Shares, Lite Software) it stands out more. I would have never thought about it until you mentioned it. It wouldn't bother me if it stayed the way it is.

Thanks for the answer, it is good that the wallpaper will only be in version 4.8, I saw some people commenting that it leaves the interface with a "heavy" appearance.

I've only seen the 4.2 background (because I have uefi, and had to start there and update to 4.8. I ended up with 4.2's background.). I like that one. It's not too bright or busy.

I'm nervous Jerry gave us a hint in this post of 5.0's background.

I don't exactly know who that is but I'm pretty sure he's a Linux master!
