Comment 19 for bug 1073708

Thanks Erasmo ! I think we're getting closer and closer of a perfect icon for Foto.

Foto's icon is good but it still doesn't follow the design style of the other elementary icons.
Let's face the mistakes :

1) If you look at the icons Beatbox, Geary, Pantheon-Terminal, ... they all have all some light and gradient on it.
Foto's icon should have it too, the gradation of colour should be similar.

2) Like you discovered the wallpaper picture in the middle was too small. The actual size of your last mod is ok but it doesn't sticks out due the brown colours. Here we have some options on replacing the sun wallpaper picture through :

  a. A new one which contains more vivid colours that really stick out.
  b. A symbolic photo icon (take a look a snap's icon).
  c. A photo lens (take a look of new shotwell's icon designed by danrabbit).

Here are some inspirations :

I think here again you should post some screenshots of different possibilities of a new Foto icon in plank.
