A few months ago, I finally upgraded to Felix's version 8 gateway. In doing so, I commissioned my daughter, and the Lead graphics designer of Flymake: http://www.flymake.com (http://www.flymake.com). to create additional icons that go along with the devices that I am using the Moteinos for.
Here is a link to the additional icons - feel free to use them as you like.

There is also a zip file with all of them as well.
To implement them, just copy them to the /home/pi/gateway/www/images directory.
Then edit the metrics.js file. Here is an example:
SolarPanel: {
label : 'Solar Panel',
icon : 'icon_solarpanel.png',
},
Then just restart the gateway with a "pkill node"
Go to the node you want the Icon for, and in the "Type" drop down you will see the new icons. Select and go!

Thanks Mike!
BTW I published these icons in the main repo under 3rdparty images (https://github.com/LowPowerLab/RaspberryPi-Gateway/tree/master/www/images/3rdparty).
FWIW The gateway now includes a feature to reset the app (to exit it, and consequently restart it) from the settings page (the power button).

Thanks Mike.

Felix, would it be possible for you to post the default icon in the format of the graphic tool that you used to edit it in? I'd like to create a new icon that is in the same styling as the ones already there. If you created them in a common tool, it would be great if I could get the default icon then edit it in the tool and save-as png.
Thanks for considering.

@HeneryH,
Actually I did - you can find it in this repo (https://github.com/LowPowerLab/RaspberryPi-Gateway/tree/master/www/images), the icons_template.cdr file, done in corel draw X5.
