I think I'm not a big fan of mixing text and images, but it's good to see you back in Org :) I guess many people don't feel like me and would be happy to try it. Please let us know. If you want to send me a screenshot of an org-mode buffer with .xpm icons, I'd happily add it to the screenshots page here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-screenshots.php Thanks! -- Bastien
