It's called "client side decorations" - "CSD". Like everything to do with interface design and changes in general, it seems to be a bit divisive to some people. > > changing the interface text to icons has severely hampered my > productivity.. i didn't become literate only to have to deal with > cutsie graphics like an illiterate toddler.. > I'm curious. Do you read the menu and interface text each time to decide what to press on or do you sort of just know what you need to press with only a quick glance at the text? To me, the "shape" of what is there is the most important - I don't really care if it is a glyph made up of a "cutsie" icon or a series of strokes that look like one or more letters. Either way one learns what the glyph does. I suppose it depends on how your mind is constructed. (I used to be able to work with Chinese Windows - I don't know Chinese, but I knew where all the menu items should be and what the icons look like!) And if you consider your icon set to be "cutsie", change the icon set to something that more matches your sensibilities.
