[Sugar-devel] About customization of xo icon

[Ignacio Rodríguez]

Thx for comments.
Do not think it's a confusion ..
It's fun change the wallpaper, as well as change the icon ..

The approval really is up to community.

Regarding the comments of Walter: My idea is: Icons in -> ~/.icons
I talked to Walter and we agree: The icons in ~/.sugar/icon
