Improve UI icons

hm, but which one should we use? :) Perhaps we should ask the maintainer of iconify - he should have experience with choosing icons...

hm, it would be nice to go with new icons for the 1.0 release. Could you go for it, mitchell? :)

For conditions I think a nice questionmark icon would suit very well. For actions I've no idea.. :(

Do you think of something like that? http://www.signoutfitters.com/store/category_images/1%20Street%20Name%20...

A good idea, or perhaps just the sign of a (road) fork? Like the bzr icon?

yep, it would be great if we could ship 1.0 with new icons. Are those icons gpl'ed? Please don't forget we need to ensure we can put them under gpl, else we cannot add this to CVS and so not to rules..

@icons:
I think the plus sign for add is ok. I think we need in particular better icons for conditions and actions.

@street sign for conditions:
I like the idea of using something related to a crossing, but as the icon is rather small, it needs to be simple. Again what about something similar to the bzr icon? http://bazaar-vcs.org/htdocs/bazaarNew/css/logo.png. Perhaps the arrow should head to the bottom and the crossing could become more intense.

Coming from #533132: Rules usability issues

Since we agreed in terminology to say "actions are executed", I would suggest to use the file executable icon from filebrowser for actions.

For conditions I'm not sure, but here is a list of suggestions
* the bazaar icon
* something with a question mark
* something with a balance
* something with a crossroads sign

@action: oh that icon looks nice, I'd be fine with that. It even sits already in the drupal cvs so it's gpl :)

@condition:
Initially I liked the questionmark, but it's already the common symbol for help which might confuse users. So that's not good.

I like something like the bzr icon best, perhaps changing it to be top-down as I noted in #11. In contrast to the crossing sign I think it's easier recognized as a "fork in the path".

After some discussion and brain storming we found the icons from the Tango set useful:

conditions: a funnel as symbol for filtering something (from FileZilla Tango Theme)
actions: a cogwheel (the executable symbol seems to be too small)

See http://drupal.org/node/533132#comment-1883110 for the icons.

committed those icons.. :)
