Hi John
this is very subjective but I spend a lot of time encouraging users to avoid 'text behind glass' so that plain text page icon for the XOT template somehow looks 'demoted' compared with the more colourful icons for Bootstrap and RSS. I know we could end up with many more icons with Pat's plugins etc but I wonder if we could use something like the attached for the XOT template? Icon and screenshot attached.

Cheers
Ron

Yeah i was thinking that we should move the icons into the modules area and rather than rename the image filename we change the path...

It can wait for v2.2

So I guess we just need a default icon for modules "sans" icon?

So I took Pat's rather obscure advice and revisited the icons situation and it turned out to be relatively easy...

So the icons are cobbled but will do... I am no designer!

See attached screenshot again for a sneak peek but please test this week.

I also committed the http/https youtube change discussed on the list today - please test with any youtube LO pages that you have to make sure that I haven't broken something else...
