as expected with the ui attempts majority of devs is hard to get.
as i count 2 dev against oxygen, third one rather created his own set ;)
Still I think it's good to hear the opinion of some more people outside this
discussion.
I'd also be interested to hear why you oppose the change of icons. Obviously
you think the current icons are better, but could you elaborate a bit more?
Some of problems with the old icons are (which is why Jürgen and I decided
to propose new ones):
* Insert icons unclear (cross-reference/citation/index/nomenclature...).
E.g. many users think of a citation when seeing the book metaphor in the
cross-reference icon.
* Icons are nearly invisible with darker window themes (lack of contrast, no
outlines)
* Float icons difficult to distinguish from icons for graphics/table itself
* Mix of different styles
* KDE 2 style doesn't match modern operating systems
If you could describe some reasons why you prefer the current icons, that
would be useful to maybe find a compromise or to take into account in future
designs.
