 File Manager Overlay Icons
 --------------------------
 
-The ownCloud sync client makes your system file manager (Explorer on Windows, 
-Finder on Mac and Nautilus on Linux) show so called overlay icons in addition
-to the normal file type icons to indicate the sync state of the individual files.
+The ownCloud sync client provides overlay icons, in addition to the normal file 
+type icons, for your system file manager (Explorer on Windows, Finder on Mac and 
+Nautilus on Linux) to indicate the sync status of your ownCloud files.
 
-The overlay icons are very similar to the tray icon introduced above. However
-there are few things to destinguish between files and directories. 
+The overlay icons are similar to the systray icons introduced above. They 
+behave differently on files and directories according to sync status 
+and errors. 
 
-The overlay icon of an individual file represents it's current sync state: If

-If the file is ignored from sync for example because it's name matches an

+If the file is ignored from syncing, for example because it is on your

-The overlay icon of a synced directory represents the state of the
-file tree within the directory. If the file tree in the directory contains
-one or more files with errors, the directory will carry a warning icon to 
-indicate that action is required. 
-
-If the tree contains ignored files that have a warning icon themselves, the

-That means that normal synced directories never have show an error sign. An

+The overlay icon of a synced directory indicates the status of the files in the 
+directory. If there are any sync errors, the directory is marked with a warning 
+icon.
 
+If the files inside the directory include ignored files that are marked with 
+warning icons, the parent directory remains in green mode.
 
+Normally-synced directories will not show an error sign, with the exception of 
+that root sync directory. That will turn red if there is a serious error 
+anywhere inside the root directory.
