No time to learn inkscape

I have one suggestion: it would be nice to have the system tray icons for applications like amarok, ktorrent etc. to resemble new monochrome KDE 4.5 icons. Just a suggestion ;)

About the scaling issues to 16 px, if
you are tryin to scale a 22px icon to
16px, then it will look shit.

I dont even understand why its 22 and not
24, because 48/2=24. Whoever came up with
22 must have been either an idiot or then
just really bad at math.

Theres really not much you can do else that
always when you draw icons, draw them
either 128 or 256.... that way they scale
very nicely to 16px :-)

I have had similar problems.... just my
problems where that they didnt scale nice
to 22px, well, they are not supposed to.
22px should not exist.

I remade some icons to 128px but they still looked poor after scaling to 16px..nor enough px i suppose.

Hmm! what grid snapping do you use?

When I make a 128 px icon in inkscape,
I make the grid to be a major one at
every 8 px (will become one px at 16px size)
and snap to it, that way it will allow
nicer scaling to smaller sizes, bigger
also.

but i have an issue with this icon theme. It displays little black circles instead of folders. (e.g. in kmail) also if i add an empty entry to dolphins sidebar i am getting the same thing.

In kmail, where it says folder select icon size 32. dolphin just drag the folder you want to the side bar...then ivon will be the same...

Cheers! but not really that frustrated with it..
Just would rather jump off a cliff!
No really just having issues with scaling at the moment..
May have to limit to 22px... which is not ideal ...will see how it goes...;)

Just wanted to point out that you are doing
a good job and a lot of people are grateful,
and use this set.

I know it can be frustrating at times
to make a full icon set as there are literally
thousands of icons.

totaly agree with this. One of the best and most complete iconsets i ever used.

btw. would it be possible to get a version where the small black icons don't have this whit shadow? That would be great.

cya and keep up your work, even if its frustration sometimes. ;)
