This is the problem: unless the icons are already universally recognized symbols (like the red circle with the slash through it), they are made for people who already know what they're looking at. If you make the text small and far away it penalizes new visitors at the expense of people who already know their way around. And for myself, though a deeply visual person, I'm likely to forget the meanings of some of your icons easily even after many visits. I usually hate icons in toolbars -- they often waste screen real-estate and add clutter, and they seldom tell me what they mean in an obvious way -- so I usually turn them off.
Hmm, good point... I have an idea of how to resolve the issue. Expect something later today :-) -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq
