[ubuntu-art] Fwd: [tomboy-list] Tomboy making any ugly face at me! :/

[Lloyd D Budd]

Tomboy and me needs your help in creating a new icon. I actually find
the current image a minor user experience issue. My original email is
at the bottom though I have now filed it as a Ubuntu bug as well
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/tomboy/+bug/64102) with
Alex's above it.

Unfortunately, it was the only icon suggested other than jimmac's
connected notes icon, which I've never been partial to.  I don't like
this one much either and the current already exists in Tango.

Luckily, the new icon loading code loads via the icon theme, so you can
overload the "tomboy" icon by putting a file with that name into ~/.icon
or /usr/share/pixmaps.

Of course, I welcome anyone with an artistic gift to step up with a nice
alternative. :-)

HTH,
