16x16 unix icon, mozilla/widget/src/gtk/mozicon16.xpm
was created from the 50x50 version but has a huge
colormap. Reminder to pavlov & me to fix this.

Both the 16 and 50 commercial icons use 217 colors,
so we need to reduce the color footprint here.
Summary: 16x16 unix icon uses way too many colors → Unix desktop icons use way too many colors

I added two new gifs for you to try out. These two files contains only 16
colors (the 4 bit color pallet of Windows system color). Not sure whether they
will work better ( they seems all have the exact file sizes as the 256 color
ones), let me know please. Same location below but be sure you get the correct
files(N16.gif, and N32gif).

I'm starting an effort to formalize an effort to revise the parts of Mozilla's
appearance outside themes, such as the icon suite, the installer, the splash
screen, and the Profile Manager dialog.
I've started a web page with some initial ideas and bug links at
[http://greg.tcp.com/mozilla/ui/Outside/introduction.html]. I welcome any and
all comments on it.

Remove myself from the QA of open bugs and change to default QA contact, since I
have no way to verify these easily. Still no working Mozilla on my primary
platform and it doesn't look like it will happen anytime soon. :(

Please do this soon. They're murder on low color systems, and using a custom
icon removes the biff functionality.

current 50x50 icon uses 9 colors and the 16x16 icon uses 86 (why? I don't know)
but the icons are on their way out for the seamonkey project anyway, so this is
