Commons:WikiProject Nuvola 2.0+

Nuvola 2.0+ is a tentative name. It can change if there is community consensus. However, Seahen considers this an appropriate name because:

1. Vignoni calls his final PNG version 1.0, and the latest SVG version 0.9.
2. Vignoni says he will probably not release any further versions on his own[2], so he will not release a Nuvola 2.0 on his own.
3. Our project will improve dramatically on 1.0, more than enough to justify a full version number increase. The PNG version contains almost 600 icons, and we will probably ultimately create at least 600 additional icons.

Icons that do not fall into any of the categories below are just as welcome as those that do, and we may start new categories later. However, the following categories badly need artists’ attention, and may provide some starting ideas.

The ultimate goal is a scalable, recognizable flag for every country in the world. Currently there is the following limited set, alphabetical by country:

In some cases, a flag icon includes fine detail that cannot be seen in screen renderings at resolutions less than 128x128px. This makes for a blurry rendering (because shapes and outlines become less than a pixel wide). Since the fine detail is still useful for high-resolution and print renderings, the best solution is to create two versions of the icon, one with the full detail of the flag and one with some detail removed and outlines thickened. (It may also be useful to enlarge the charge in the latter version. If the flag contains numerous stars, try using fewer stars and making them larger.) Note that since some of Vignoni's icons other than flags (such as  ) have equally fine detail that also doesn't render at low resolutions, so simplifying the flags would be a stylistic departure, and full-detail flags should be the priority.

Nuvola doesn’t even have a filing cabinet, let alone a bed or dining table or any type of seating. There are also none of the appliances classified as white goods.

Note that the dresser and table below are front views; angled views would be better (although ideally all furniture would exist in both views).

This would include items likely to be found in a store, and thus suit the needs of online stores. This would include:

• Cash register and checkout counter
• Shopping bag
• Cash (try not to make this country-specific)
• Credit/debit cards
• Basket
• Cart
• Shelves, bins, etc.
• Catalogue

We have no icons in this category yet.

Sorry, but   and   don’t make a meal.

Even   (which appears to have been accidentally released without a head on top) doesn't have a neck, much less any sleeves. We have no icons in this category yet.

Tango has a complete set, but we can’t use Nuvola to express our dissatisfaction with what little it gives us. We have no original icons in this category yet. :-(

  doesn't give us any precipitation, so it's a pretty dry category. Tango, on the other hand, is flooded with  ,   and  . We have no original icons in this category yet.

Currently, the only building we have is  , and its inferior SVG twin,   (which doesn’t, for instance, have roof shingles). We have no original icons in this category yet.

Currently, Wikipedia pages such as Wikipedia:Browse use a mix of Nuvola and non-Nuvola icons to represent various topics. This is not aesthetically pleasing; a Nuvola icon for every field of study would be the ultimate goal. The list below may be incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

Icons that are not part of sub-projects include:
