I think this is necessary for the root menu
big screen players should have big icons “palm pc style” and the rest of the menues like list.
or the option to choose.
plus+ add color to the icons. full 24 bit icons would be sweet!
all the new mobile os’s (Symbian OS, Palm OS, Motorola) have it, We should too.

We don’t have a root menu. We have a main menu, and you can use that without icons as well. And only because other devices like mobile phones have icons doesn’t give a good reason why we should have big icons too. The current icons look really fine on the older greyscale devices – please keep in mind that Rockbox isn’t just the newer ipods.

The main menu looks really sparse on larger LCDs, and just because it looks fine on older targets doesn’t mean it looks fine on the newer ones.
And I don’t really see a problem with having different icon sets for different players, which would keep both camps happy.
I’d really like to see nicer icons personally, but at the same time I know it’s quite a bit of effort to implement properly…

Maybe my last comment was a bit confusing.

I wanted to note the fact that we have smaller displays and shouldn’t forget about them – for larger displays having bigger icons would be nice, and the ability to customize the icons would be nice anyway. But in all discussion it seems a lot of people simply forget about the players with smaller displays, which makes me disagree with some arguments: I don’t think it’s _necessary_. It would be nice though, but how other devices (and especially OF) work never was a reason for implementing stuff in Rockbox.

Btw, I think the poster refers to something like the “big icons / small icons” view as in e.g. windows explorer – which is a completely different thing. I don’t believe such a view would be useful at all.

I’ve seen it mentioned elsewhere, that it would be good to have the WPS theme also control the menus look/feel. Is it really difficult to code the menus in a way that is theme-able? I know my Gigabeat is really needing this type of flexablility
