Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
Hello,
I think that we must have icons for :
change color depth
automatic levels
automatic contrast
negative
sepia
old photo
Do you have an idea for the metaphor?
And which others icons are needed?

Sorry, I've been busy.

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage

AutoLevel & AutoContrast
UPD: alternative is letter "A" instead of arrows.

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
Hello Mezich.
You are really good. I like them both. Some thoughts:
Automatic Levels
For the Auto levels icon, perhaps reversing the direction of the two little arrows would be better. My reason for this is that I think the automatic levels action typically results in an apparent widening of the histogram.
Automatic Contrast
I really like the appearance of this icon, but it suggests "Adjust contrast" to me (instead of "Auto contrast") since the arrows suggest a variable control, which "Auto" is not;
The problem is how to represent the "Auto" meme component.
Perhaps the "Auto" could be better represented by a little robot head or something that implies robotic action.

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
That's because I suggest "A" letter. Robot head is too complex fot recognition in small size. I have seen "A" in photo camera UI.JohnFredC wrote:Hello Mezich.

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
That looks really good.
Did you try an "A" on the Auto Levels also ... for consistent iconography?
