Icons need to be more iconic #881

The icons for ICs, mystery part and generic ICs are not very readable or functionally obvious. The main problem is that ICs all tend to look the same. The second problem is that text on those little icons is difficult to read. Some new designs might be helpful:

For the Op-Amps, draw the schematic shape (the triangle pointing right with two inputs and one output) on top of the DIP package.

For the 555 timer, draw a clock.

For the generic ICs, use the question mark from the mystery part on top of the IC.

For the mystery part, use the question mark but put it on top of a generic "black box" (or maybe purple) shape.
