When would we use the WordPress 2.7 version in WordPress.com? I know that it comes at the end of this month, but what is the exactly day?
Dec 3rd at 11:54 pm
December 4 if you’re in the U.S.
Nov 17th at 7:14 pm
Now that’s what I’m talking about. Really neat icons
Nov 17th at 7:20 pm
Well deserved. I can’t wait to see 2.7. Good job all.
Nov 17th at 7:24 pm
Very good sets. That’s what I voted for. Good choice
Nov 17th at 7:38 pm
Really great results! Thanks for the opportunity to help you and influence this project and thanks all designers for the superb work.

Wow…that’s really too close to make a decision in the business world. If democracy counted.
I’ve been in style decision meetings that close and we always ended up with the traditional tiebreaker: whichever design the boss preferred.
Nov 17th at 10:31 pm
You’ve been in style decision meetings with 3700 people?
In all seriousness, I think our voting was very democratic: the popular vote had a clear winner (ask any pollster and they’ll tell you 35% to 29% is not a tie), and the judges agreed with the popular vote, so there were no complicated decisions to make.
Nov 17th at 8:06 pm
Glad to see that there appeared to be a major consensus on the icons and metaphors.
I am very much looking forward to 2.7.
Nov 17th at 8:31 pm
Congrats, I can’t wait to see the new icons in use!
Everyone did a wonderful job!
Nov 17th at 9:35 pm
Wow! Awesome icons. Can’t wait for WP 2.7!
Nov 17th at 10:54 pm
Cool appearance. I can’t wait for it.
Nov 17th at 11:03 pm
Yeah! VS, VS,VS! ^^
Nov 17th at 11:48 pm
My two favorites were by far VS and LS. To me they were not only visually comfortable, but they were also the most directly obvious to my eyes at a glance as to what they meant. That’s just my opinion though. Haha! Congrats to the winners!

Nov 18th at 5:12 am
Good idea and great icons
Nov 18th at 6:26 am
this is a good chance for us to gain more writers by letting them see the new stuffs from WP dashboard. i mean, the current dashboard has a simple effect. but with these icons… it will totally makeover everything. (i hope we still have the option to choose whether we want a iconless or w/ icons dashboard
Nov 18th at 7:27 am
I said 2 months ago:
“Some category icons will help more but …wow fast improvements!”
Now I see that realized……thanks a lot.
Nov 18th at 9:51 am
They’re all excellent, but I do think the right choice was made as the winner – congratulations everyone!
Nov 18th at 10:36 am
Oh, yeah, the winners icons are really the best
Cute

Nov 19th at 12:48 pm
I like the “comments” item with a red balloon tip, makes new comments noticeable.
Nov 19th at 1:19 pm
Really easy to work with and I have written some stuff that I’d love other bloggers to read. So far I’ve had little response. How do I make my blog more accessible, more ‘out there’?
I’m new to this , as is probably very apparent!
