'oSwI'mey?  "Representers?"  Looking at the rest of your post, I conclude that 
you're trying to say "icons."  We don't have a word for it.  {DeghHom}, maybe. 
 It's all hindsight, anyway.

Check the list archives for many discussions on this topic.

You could, but it really means "computer noticer."  You might try something 
like {De'wI'Daq yInej}.  Who says you need a noun?

If you like.

Oh, yeah!  I remember "Main."  I haven't had a "Main" on my computer for a 
long time!

{potlhmey} is just fine.

Nope, nope, and not yet.
