The really hilarious thing is that part of the reason for us changing the icon was the vast numbers of users who e-mailed us or posted on the forums to say how much they hated the old icon - where were all you guys who are suddenly enamoured of the old icon then, huh? I have an inkling some people just don’t like change.
Anyway, we like the icon, we thought long and hard about it, blah blah, but ultimately it is part of our branding and therefore not open to discussion. Obviously feel free to love or hate it, but it has no bearing on functionality and this thread is now getting bogged down with people expressing their subjective opinions about our icon. I’d therefore be grateful if we could drop all discussion of the icon and icons from this discussion now - thanks!
As for the Easter eggs, it’s not just me in there… Who’s that long-haired chap with a cap? Didn’t everyone used to think he was a girl…?
Okay so if I want to find an easter egg I just have to sit at the keyboard and make like a monkey by tapping random key combinations ad infinitum until I a) accidentally write Hamlet or b) get to see a photo of Keith (or Amber).
sheesh. Can’t you give us a teeny tiny hinty-winty? Anything. Like, how many keys to combine???
Fair enough Keith. The icon is the one thing that has the right to be as personal as you want it to be. We’re writers here, so we have something to say on everything concerning anything. Cheers.
Thanks for your understanding, much appreciated. And when I said it wasn’t open for discussion, I didn’t mean that to sound as curt as it did on re-reading my post, apologies for that. (The trouble is that I come to this thread at the end of a day of banging my head against a brick wall fixing bugs, thinking, “Ah, new posts, wonder what they’re saying about Scrivener 2.0… Argh! They’re still complaining about the icon! Brick wall, here’s my head again!” )
Okay, found the photos. Thanks for the hint, I’d never have found them otherwise. But no faces, eh? Very mean to give so much, yet give so little. Yeah, nice t-shirt (Off World Colony?), but still…where’s the rest of you??? Is there a reason you don’t show your faces, eh???
And why aren’t Lee or Julia in there, eh?
Hmmm, and why am I adding ‘eh’ to all my questions, … almost said ‘eh’ again…
So are there other easter eggs other than the quotes and the photos with Scrivener faces? For those who don’t like the new icon, don’t bother looking for the photos, btw. You’ll hate them.
David, are you playing an air guitar?? Like the jacket.
Ioa, I like your outfit especially well. Neat hat et al. You look like you are a rogue photo journalist or something, maybe for an underground newspaper. And with books bulging from your pockets. Very cool…
I know, which is why I’m a deeply undercover reporter for a well-known encyclopaedia, instead, studying the human species and their strange “soft” ware.
alexwin, you have now caused me to spend 30 minutes not paying attention to the meeting I am in as well as frustrating me in my inability to find these pics! You have succeeded where only a 16 year old daughter has succeeded previously.
