Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-artwork

i don't know was it is, but i find the new "show desktop" panel icon to be quite repulsive. even repulsive enough to file a bug about it. it's too busy and complicated looking. plus that pencil seems impossibly large and threatening (thank goodness Freud is no longer around to analyze that comment). the previous icon (the one from the Tangerine icon theme) is quite nice. it would be nice to go back, or have a vote on it.

Although I agree with you that it's not the best icon ever, please be
respectful when commenting on other peoples work...

I personnally find it too "white" (not enough contrast with the panel) but that's all. I don't really understand your comment, I don't see any pencil.
