New Icons For Orca

Thanks to Steven Brandt and the Tango Desktop Project, there are new icons for Orca in the 2.19.6 release. These are slightly less anthropomorphic then the last ones.

Rem. : Very nice logo. Ques.: Isn't a guide stick for the blind supposed to have two or three red bands on a white background ?

Funny you should mention that. The original icons from Stephen did have multiple red bands, but this was then adjusted. Here's some info on the history.

Thanks for the info. I dug up two different web catalogs that had guide sticks - one with a single red band and one with two bands. I'm used to seeing guide sticks with two bands. Oddly enough I couldn't dig up an ADA spec. page for guide sticks.
One Band
Two Bands
