Re: graphics help

I really like the 'programs' icon too.

The 'shell' one is good also.

Re: graphics help

So here's the screenshot that you used for the mockup, yes? screenshot5.jpg I think I personally prefer the bolder primary colours, even though I know the dark colours, browns and dark greys, are popular nowadays.

Hopefully the board is set up correctly to allow users to post images, etc... ;)
