That sounds like quite the bug ;)

I'm not sure what you mean about it missing icons. They should all be there.

My suggestion is to remove the old directory first.

It's either going to be in your home directory in a hidden folder called .icons

or it's going to be in /usr/share/icons, in which case you need root privileges to remove it.

Then, you should re-download the latest release, which I just downloaded to check for errors. There are none that I can see ;)

I have no idea what can be.
I have erased the old folders, download the latest, and put it on my ~/.icons and in /usr/share/icons

It doesn't work, a lot of icons appears as well, some others no, like this screenshot: http://www.lyceuhns.net/ele_pcman.png

But, should works, like others, like this:

It was just for example, any idea?

Ah, You know what? People have reported problems with PCManFM before. I believe it has something to do with the way it handles symlinks.

For now, supported File Browsers are Nautilus and Thunar ;)

I'm sorry, i didn't notice that.
I use PCManFM on LXDE desktop, and on this, there are some icons missing too (menu categories per exemple).

But, that's ok, i hope for new versions to test here again.

Thanks. :D

I had been using Shiki Colours for so long I forgot how good these looked. Now back to this set.

There's only a few icons that aren't my favs, like the volume notification icon (which looks hella old school/dated).

I notice that if you enlarge the panel to around 28 then the volume icon changes to a better looking one. Is that intended?

(Oh, and I meant Gnome Colours.)

It's just inherited from the gnome icon theme, ATM. I'm working now on really trying to make monochrome icons work. So, we might see a monochrome one for the next release.

Incredible. My ideas for next release:

- Better rhytmbox taskbar icons (for playing/pause). I.e. Meliae icon theme uses simply play/pause buttons.
- Some kickass pidgin tray icons (You're icon designer genius - You'll figure something out:)
- better taskbar volume icon
- power manager has sweet icons, but the blue one with ac adaptor looks ugly - like a black dot on blue one. The blue color used for incadion of almost full battery is too dark.

And last but not least - PERFECT icon for OO Writer :) Sweet notebook - like in first grade in school :)
