Design icon
"Design" is a bit tricky. I've hesitated between a font design diagram and a golden ratio icon, and I eventually went for the Vitruvian man because to me it's a good metaphor for both aesthetics and user-centered design. We can obviously discuss this further, but I didn't want to leave 1 icon on How to contribute that wasn't consistent with the set. guillom 17:06, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Features testing
The hammer isn't very straightforward imho. I've replaced it with an icon of a checklist, which to me better conveys Features testing. (I'm not planning to change icons very often, but I think it's ok to be bold during this initial phase, as we figure out a good set of icons that can be more stable in the future.) guillom 17:06, 15 February 2013 (UTC)


 * I think the hammer is at least as straightforward as a checklist, plus it has an attitude. The testing guys like it and I think it reflects with a blink the idea of manual / prospective testing. Can we have it back? I like the checklist icon though. I can see it serving a good purpose for Product development (as in planning & checking requirements, for instance).--Qgil (talk) 22:41, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

API icon
The plug icon is not bad for API but Kaganer had a good argument for using. This is why we de-assigned it from Browser testing. Unless there is a better argument I still think the gears work better.--Qgil (talk) 22:47, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Promotion icon
At some point we will have a Promotion page and section at How to contribute. There is also Groups/Promotion. The icon proposed is a megaphone: http://thenounproject.com/noun/megaphone/#icon-No10303 (alternative: http://thenounproject.com/noun/megaphone/#icon-No9214 ).--Qgil (talk) 15:38, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
