Nice! And thanks for being so quick and responsive. I made a 10-minute
hack to the snapshot you sent me, just to show how icons can be
further improved with little effort (I just changed the nine icons
upper right). If you guys like them, I can do something more accurate
in the 16x16 pgn format you suggested.

While I were at it, I also took three snapshots to compare the
characters used in the menus for Scid with the one used by Firefox and
OpenOffice (same also in other softwares). As you can see, the ones of
Firefox and OpenOffice are distinctively clearer and more modern. Is
it possible to change the characters? Using the same character as in
"File", "Edit", etc would be totally fine.
