I think icons should be an option, but not default.

The question is, should Antix include icons in the Fluxbox and IceWM menu? And if so, should they be provided by default or as an option?

The only issue I would have is size. Anti has mentioned that the iso has grown considerably and we keep add features of convenience or looks. I don't want to knock the great work that has been going on but I prefer"no frills". As far as I'm concerned keep it clean and simple.

Adding icons should not increase the iso significantly. Basically, we just include an extra menu with links to icons on the iso. However, if we're missing a few icons, then they would be added to the iso to complete the menu. But even then the additional icons should not add a significant amount to the iso.

Personally, I've waffled over this issue for awhile. I'd like to see a menu with icons included on the iso - default or otherwise. While for myself, I prefer icons only in the main menu. (In gnome, xfce, kde, menu icons look nice. In fluxbox or icewm it really depends on the style you're using.)

what if we have another set of icons not the default? isn't a way to make a script to recognize the icons like in lxappearance or something?
