Agreed, except for those of us with crummy 4:3 displays that can't do
justice to 800X600. Those plain text status icons are even less
readable than the sometimes cryptic icons.
I'd really like to see standard, less-cryptic icons that get used
across multiple themes. I have to admit that whenever I switch themes,
I'm initially confounded by most of these icons
On another note,
The MePo theme is really quite cool and it works pretty well as-is
with 4:3 displays, except for some fields that are too narrow or
screens that don't use up all of the real estate - nonetheless, nearly
usable for 4:3.
For a 4:3 version of this theme, I'd like to see larger fonts and just
slightly more contrast.
I really like the mythmusic redesign in this theme - almost enough to
want to consider making that the default. :)
Thanks.
