IMHO consistency is not *that* important. A good
solution could easily
have an "i" for en, and some
Chinese character on zh. If the symbol looks roughly the same (white text on
blue background, in the appropriate corner), that's good enough. "i" is
pretty well understood internationally anyway.
It's true. Your suggestion is consistent enough. But now you've now
taken it out of my ability to impliment. Replacing a single icon is
easy. Setting icons for 209 languages is much harder. ;)
Fwiw, the one that works the best is your version with
the big "i",
replacing the other "expand this image" icon. I think a person wanting to
see the image bigger will just click the image, and someone wanting the
image credits will click the "i" - irrelevant that they go to the same
place. I sort of prefer Stephen's original "i" size though.
Feel free to edit the page to propose other styles.
It's not hard to do better than what we have today. :)
So long as people can get behind one version we can change it. :)
