It does have those ugly OS 9/Windows 95 looking icons. Why are these programs so in love with the ugly icons that only a 4 year old could love? It's almost as if they broke into the house of the guy who made KidPix and stole his collection of icons. The icon for Freehand, the butterfly, looks good, but it was downhill from there. And what's with these lightbulb? Aren't people using halogen and fluorescent bulbs these days? People are debating about changing the "save" icon, generally portrayed as a floppy disk. People rarely use floppy disks these days, and for young people who didn't grow up with them, they don't get the connection.Joshuahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06670018156338485154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20105364.post-34713814815867347392008-02-18T22:57:00.000-08:002008-02-18T22:57:00.000-08:00I have also heard the terms"entermation": entertai...I have also heard the terms<BR/><BR/>"entermation": entertain+information, <BR/><BR/>and<BR/><BR/>"entorm" entertain + inform<BR/><BR/>all great new terms for expressing learning combined with fun.Giovanna M.
