Mac OS - Snow Leopard Versus Windows Seven Icons
The new Windows 7 icons were introduced with Vista and many carry over to Windows 7. On the other hand Mac OS ten has some icons that are extremely clear like the internal drive while on Vista and Windows seven appears more like an external drive.When it comes to beauty and form, both the Mac OS and Windows 7 icons are running neck in neck. If you check them side-by-side, there are some differences of note, but the styles of the icons are both pretty and clearly convey a message of what they indicate. Some of the key differences between the two start if you look at the folder icons. While they both use folder shapes, Windows seven sticks with the more traditional yellow color which is nearer to their real-world counterparts. Mac OS elects to use a speckled blue color which more seems like a recycled paper than conventional file folder. This change occurred in Leopard and was met up with some feedback.
Folder types are also different from Windows 7 icons to Mac OS X with the second embossing an image on the icon and the previous opting for an emblem sticking out of the folder. This sticking out blob of the side of the folder makes it more troublesome to see what the folder means like it probably did in the days before Leopard which was basically better to tell one from the other.
The new Windows 7 icons were introduced with Vista and many carry over to Windows 7. On the other hand Mac OS 10 has some icons that are very clear like the internal drive while on Vista and Windows seven appears more like an external drive. Windows doesn't lose its older icons either. If you look in the icons, you'll still see things like the 3.5 and 5.25 floppy disk. Some differences with the trash bin is that on the Mac it looks expanded when full.
Windows 7 has continued the glass-like style which it debuted in Windows Vista, there are also a couple of icons that have a newer style that steps away from the glassy look. One of them is Wordpad which in Windows seven follows a totally different style. Also in Mac OS X, the TextEdit icon has text which ran in the'Think Different' television advertisement which Apple did in the latter 90s. There are many more icons that have this playful touch than in Windows which has been known to present business like, utilitarian icons which have carried over into Windows seven. Mac OS icons are known to have a more creative bent.
This, naturally, is directly tied to the branding of each operating system : Windows is business-oriented and Mac OS is more artistically driven and private. While this isn't engraved in granite, it is something which has been long known in the business. The practical approach to icons is more clear in both systems System Preferences and Control Panel sections. The icons on both systems obviously convey their meaning without any room for bafflement. These 2 sets of icons while fascinating serve that purpose. Hopefully, the way icons are rendered in Windows seven will change with the next upgrade. They're now in .ico format which isn't the easiest to handle inside .exe and .dll files.
