[eclipse-poky] format and size of overlay icons?

[Scott Lewis]

Hi Tim and all,

For reference, here are all the eclipse icons [1].  For example, on page 
6 is the J overlay for the package explorer in the middle (row 9 col 3) 
which is 7x8 pixels.   There are other overlay examples there 
also...many of them 7X8 but some larger or smaller.

Most of them are gifs...for historical reasons probably.   But they do 
need to generally have a transparent background.  Here's about icons [2] 
from the Eclipse User Interface Guidelines [3].

I agree with you about keeping with Yocto conventions for colors, icons, 
fonts, etc.

My thought is to make the “y” either black or grey and the “dot” will be the usual blue. Eclipse guidelines say that we should use blue, orange, yellow and purple. But we are not an EF project, so I think we keep with our own branding.
