Re: [libreoffice-design] LibreOffice, Icons For Telegram Channels

As replied on Telegram:

+ I like flat icons and your proposal definitely complies with the branding guideline. But what 
identifies design, for example, with black or dark grey/green? Just color is hard to understand- 
but admittedly easy to distinguish later. And please keep in mind that Telegram makes everything 
round.
+ After loading the image I've seen the tiny connector lines. Beautiful!
+ But unfortunately you need a hires screen to perceive this unzoomed.
+ The country icons are super funny when compared against each other. Love Hebrew/Israel. And 
Brasil 😊
