The old ones are too complicated, if you ask me. If it wasn't for the accompanying text, I wouldn't understand what half of them depicted. For all I know, the original \"Bitter Cold\" icon could be a guy walking on the beach. That's bad design.

Agreed. In my opinion simpler is better in this case.[/b]

Agreed again...

But the new ones look so darn cartoonie. I like the 'real life' feel of the old icons. Like the car driving in the rain.

Yeah.. I like the new ones better... the pictures are a bit hard to follow in some cases.. but I will miss the "Tornadoes Possible" icon!
