*The redesigns used for the svg versions of several of these are, in many cases, direct and significant downgrades to my eyes that would damage the icons' usability. I seriously dislike the svg versions of Check Mark, Data, Disambig, Indeterminate, Merge, Move, Photo, Speculation, Split, Unnotable, and X Mark; they are in most cases harder to clearly understand at a moment's glance, especially at small sizes. I strongly encourage you to scrap as many of the redesigns on that list as you're willing to.

*:XMark was ripped from TF2 and Checkmark was derived from it, they've been on my "kill" list for years. Disambig and Split were changed in order to not have square silhouettes amongst all the circles; Merge was changed to match style with Split. Data was changed because it's harder to control text between browsers than symbols in SVGs, and converting all that text into paths would be fairly expensive (same reason the fancy curly letters were dropped from the policy scrolls). Speculation was changed to not be so similar to LowQuality (and, at least locally for me, it rendered quite differently in various browsers). Move is being reconsidered as above. I get the complaint about Photo and might make it symmetrical or change it back, not sure yet. As for Indeterminate and Unnotable, I don't see your beef with them, and would need more feedback than "no" to change anything.

Post here if you have an idea for a new icon and I'll consider it. An example would be splitting a "new bug" icon off of the "bugfix" icon. | Post here if you have an idea for a new icon and I'll consider it. An example would be splitting a "new bug" icon off of the "bugfix" icon. | ||
