Thanks by the icons! I think is better replace only the labels by the icons and put the combos in the toolbar too. In this way you can see the values of the selected timer and duration, and we don't need change the texts.

So I did icons for the two options based on Gonzalo's suggestions: <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/%7Emanuq/record_design/record_mockup.png" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/~manuq/record_design/record_mockup.png</a> <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/%7Emanuq/record_design/duration.svg" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/~manuq/record_design/duration.svg</a> <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/%7Emanuq/record_design/timer.svg" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/~manuq/record_design/timer.svg</a> This way, the combo boxes that have the options can be replaced with palettes. As you can see, this icons are not a replacement in meaning for the words "Timer" and "Duration", so the texts should be changed: Timer: "inmediate" for "Start inmediatly", "5 seconds" for "Wait 5 seconds", "10 seconds" for "Wait 10 seconds". Duration: "2 minutes" for "Record 2 minutes", and so on. What do you think? we can discuss this on the design meeting, I can attend this sunday Cheers, </blockquote></div>
