Question to the developers: what format do you want the icons in?

[Svetoslav Nedkov]

Hi James,

I apologize for not responding to your email on time. The main 
difficulty I face when trying to answer your question is that I'm not 
sure what format of the icons will be the most convenient to work with. 
I guess that transparent png will do fine and as to the way of getting 
to them I agree with Justin about attaching them to the jiras. The two 
issues that I'm working on are:

Code entry:

My Collection:

Regards,

Svetoslav

Guest book is a priority, since Antranig is working on this right now and won't have access to the raw wireframes to pull the graphics out himself.
