Thanks. I'll look into these.

I'm aware of this problem. I didn't want to wait till it could be resolved, 
though, before asking for feedback on the recent changes. The problem is that 
I'm looking for someone who can do some visual image stuff for me. Are you good 
at that? If so, I'll tell you what I'm looking for.

My understanding is that the icon should be white (not black) foreround and 
transparent background.

I do know about the actions, but hadn't yet thought about what they might be. 
Yours is a good suggestion. Thanks.
