Start Screen Minor Changes

Description

please view in original size...

I have redone the tile graphics. Tweaked the colors a bit.
Redone most of the icons or their sizes.

I think MS really rushed here. Most icons look like they were made in a hurry.

They are not even placed exactly in one place for each app.

This is to show how the Start Screen can look a little cleaner and uniform.

(Notice the reduced gradient)

i agree with you on the icons
but i think the colors and the gradient MS went with are better suited
for example the orange you chose pops out a little too much i think
their choice of orange stays a bit more in the background this gives the start screen a more consistent feel in my opinion

i think the white highlight border from MS is also better because it makes it easier to distinguish between like tiles
although i admit that that's just me being pedantic and probably also personal preference
but i just wanted to give you my honest opinion

anyway i hope you keep up the good work i really like your ideas especially the metro desktop app
it looks really mature and thought through well
