We find it hard to differentiate between the 3 Up arrows for Highest/High/Medium Priority and the 2 Down arrows for Low/Lowest Priority.

If you edit your priorities, you need Jira admin permissions, you have the option to also change the icon used. Just go to Administration > Issues > Priorities.

Great, thanks.  Are there additional icons from Atlassian that we can install, for more choices ?

If you are on Server you can always look in the /images/icons folder, there a couple of other icons in there besides the default ones. On Cloud you would have to create your own or link to external ones.

For Cloud users this post might be helpful: How to upload Custom Priority Icons?

Not for cloud. Banner clearly states its Server and Data Center Only

@Elliot Gates  @Jo @Mikael Sandberg Changing priority icons is global in JIRA? Will it impact all projects priority icons? Is it possible to change icon for only 2 projects out of 200?   Please suggest.
