A monochrome icon theme that comes with a script to modify the icons.

I don't know how experienced you are in this stuff but i will try to explain as basic as i can so anyone that is interested would at least have a chance to follow this mini guide.
Also worth mentioning is that for editing/making icons i use inkscape and a normal text-editor. So i will assume you have these tools available. Inkscape is free and a text-editor shouldn't be to hard to get a hold of. =)
Ok heres what is needed:
1. The icon should be in the svg file format.
2. No outlines "strokes" should be used. Well they won't make the script overlook the icon but they won't follow the selected color.
3. For gradients to work over the whole icon and not the separate pieces everything should be in one path. The easiest way for me to do this is to use select all in inkscape and then press "ctrl" + "+".
4. Open the file in a text editor and change "fill:(some color in hex)" to fill:url(#linearGradient1234).
5. Open an icons that already follows the color settings and find the first "<linearGradinet". Copy everything from that line down to the "<def". Paste that above the "<def" in the new icon.
6. For the next release that will be 0.8 all icons should have the width and height of 48 and have a distance to the edge of 2.
I think that covers everything. If you have any more questions i will try my best to answer them. Hope it works out for you. =)

I also packed the symlinks for them. =)
The easiest way to help would probably be like you just did. Send in new icons to me. It's kind of hard to cover a lot of app-icons by myself so that is highly appreciated.
As for working on the script feel free to try and implement whatever idea you have. I'll try my best to answer questions. =)

And I've got an idea how to improve them even more: What about outlines? Since this is a simple style-option for svg-files, it shouldn't be that difficult... With a selectable thickness and color for the outlines, they would be much easier to read!
Greetings!
And don't stop the development :)

Actually I experimented with outlines back in version 0.2 or something. Then it didn't work out as it just cluttered up the icons. In later versions I have changed the structure of the svg files so it might work now. So thanks for reminding me. =)
However right now I'm working on another feature (which if everything works out will be pretty cool imo) so it won't be implemented anytime soon.

1. In the script to change distro logos, these debian lines miss a space:
cp -r ../logos/debian[space missing here]../real_icons/apps/checkbox-gtk.svg
cp -r ../logos/debian[space missing here]../real_icons/places/distributor-logo.svg
2. For nero linux 4, the icon is called nerolinux instead of nero, so just an extra symlink could fix that one.
Just 2 small things to take the theme up to 11.

Maybe you could upload a screenshot? It might help me in finding out what icons are missing.
