[Toaster] Design - Deleting custom images

Hi Belén,

1. It took me a moment to find the "Delete custom image" link, but once I found it and read your comments I understood why it was there. And since it is in red (like all of the trash can icons), it was easy and logical to see thereafter.

2. For the delete confirmation, I would have probably initially gone with the modal "Accept/Cancel" dialog.

I have read your comments and visualized the proposed countdown dialog, and I think that it is fine. It requires minimal interaction, plus the countdown action does draw the eye so that the user will actively know what is about to happen.

I will mention that the Mac shutdown operation has a similar countdown. It also has a shortcut button to say that I want it to skip to the end and shut down now, but if your count is just 5 seconds then I would say the extra button is not needed.

To your "un-do" idea, having an undo state with a regular auto-clean would be a nice enhancement in the next release.

- David
