Re: [WDSCI-L] Change Icon on Perspective

[Scott Johnson <sjohnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I like icons because I can usually tell at a glance what/where something is. 
Since I don't plan on having the original RSE and my perspective open at the 
same time I should be fine.  I was just thinking that I should be able to add my 
own flair to it.

Joel,
If you have kids, just let them draw on them to get the colors she needs. Or the 
next time she 'complains', give her a box of crayons. :-)
