My thoughts on this:
- I think the icons for chat, msg, ... are now intuitive. Very good.

I still have the feeling there is something wrong with the colour of the 
stars (for example for online), which make it not a beautiful icon in my 
tray and contact list. I have a suggestion for something to try (if you 
have time for it): Now you have your gradient going from white/light 
yellow (left-top) to dark brown (right-bottom). This makes it quite 
"hard" as I said before. Suggestion: take a less dark color and place it 
in the middle -> hence a gradient going from light yellow on the borders 
to darker yellow in the middle. (compare a highly zoomed version of this 
stellar with crystal, crystal also has gradient towards the middle, 
maybe this is the reason why crystal 'seems' less hard/rough.

Hope this helps

Grtz
