SKY icons 0.7.3
Little update
Added konqueror, opera and kmail icons.
SKY icons are a new 48x48 icon theme for KDE 3.x.x.
Folders and mime icons aren't based over default KDE icons.
It looks clean, pretty, simple and not boring.
This is iconset is completely made from scratch with the Gimp.
I'm not supported from anyone so I do it only in the free-time.
SOFTWARE
The Gimp : creation and manipulation of icons.
ImageMagik : conversion and scaling.
Sodipodi : creation of wide icons.
KDE 3.0.3 / SuSE 8.1 : authoring platform.

The icons are very nice, just wish they were bigger. Ever thought of using Kontour?

The result from the compilation (DVI) should stand out from the source files (TeX) otherwise it is really hard to locate by looking at the icons.
Also the look should be somehow close to the one from PS and PDF files. Take a look at the Hi-Color or Crystal icon sets.
Keep up the great work ;)

P.S. I didn't like the new kmail icon very much (perhaps because of my colour scheme) and I lifted the wonderful yellow folders from your "Desktop Icons" as usual but that's just me :):).

By the way, where can I get the nice background image? I saw it several times, is it from SUSE or RedHat? Can you post it here or just send it to me?

This set should be included in kde 3.1! It's very good!
But we need a new kmenu icon, because, not all kde users use linux :-).
And the konsole icon looks like a gnome terminal icon, right? Basically, it's like a rip:-)
OOo icon is fantastic, but we need better icons for konqueror, xmms, noatun ...
I think you should modify some icons form a set called iKons, because SKY and iKons are pretty compatible.

The konsole icon and the one of gnome-terminal are similar but I haven't ripped anything, maybe you could say I've made a "reverse engenering" of it. you can compare them to see that aren't the same and probably weren't created in the same way.
Mimes, Devices and Filesystem are almost completed, I've just to make a full 32px and 16px conversion...
so the next step is to have fully working ACTIONS and APPS.

Pretty and functional at the same time, i.e. not "overdesigned" as most icon themes.
I will not download another icon theme again (except for your updates of course).

Probably I'll use a "heart" as bookmark.
I've removed the gohome in konqueror 'cause I wasn't satisfied of the old one, this will be a priority for the next release.
kmenu: I've removed the "K"menu 'cause I really don't like it, I've put the penguing again 'cause for now is the one I prefer, but I'm thinking on a better Kmenu icon.

- Clean
- Bordered (adds to cleanliness)
- Pretty
Crystal and such are nice icons, they look flashy, but are not really that usable for the main purpose an icon has. Recognition of what it is representing.
Kudos for your work, and please do continue ! Someone in the KDE development team should take notice of these icons soon, and include the set in KDE.

icons Dave !
Crystal Icons look good - but your
icons are neither mac style or XP style.
It makes really a lot of fun to click them !!!!!
My favourites are the arrows in Konqueror. If they only were in 32x32.
But anyway very good job :)
