Media center battery icon needs work (laptops only)

Submitted by .Chris on December 1, 2008 to Aesthetics, Annoyance

Problem: In 6801 media center when in full screen mode shows the batter icon. Only problem is, the icon looks like it came from windows 1.0 with the bright teal and yellow color scheme. Should be changed to more of a glossy icon or not show at all unless hover over that aera.

Solution: Change the icon

NOTE: If this has been changed since, let me know and i'll delete this submition

Severity: High

Impact: Medium

Status: Fixed

Fixed in 6946

Post a screenshot. Won't promote/demote until I see WMC and the icon and I have no laptop.

Added new image attachment.

Added, even though 10 others promoted it and that should tell you something ;)

Yep. That should tell you that what i say is true

No it shouldn't. Seventeen people also promoted your suggestion about bringing back the WMP EQ controls that were already present in 6801. Another seventeen voted to add a visualization to an option called "no visualization." If anything things like that should tell us that votes on this site are absolutely useless.

Edited for accuracy and an addition comment.

The point of this site is to give feedback.

That's why it's called beta... be sure they will change the icon in RTM.

Yes, but the point of this site is to point out these things. not just to site around and chat.
