Updated my icon-theme. I might add it to the AUR soon, although everyone can just install it by downloading it from the deviantArt page and extracting the .tar.gz file in ~/.icons/ now.

Using it now! Thanks

Haha, I realise most people on here are not likely to be fanatic gnome users, but I thought I'd let you all know nonetheless. I remember that somebody asked me about my icon theme at least once in a screenshot thread a few months ago

Nice detail without being too detailed. Good borders, very distinct (hope this doesn't get to your head ), very nice.

Originally, I was going to keep it icon-theme-spec conformant. I found out there is really not many applications that follow the icon theme spec though, so I added a few gnome-fs-* icons (they are there, check in the theme). The only thing I really didn't want to add is those horrible stock_* named icons, they just look totally out of place. I really don't see how application developers got the idea to start using these names, I guess this icon theme is my way of adding pressure to get applications to be more spec-compliant.
Another thing I didn't do is add icons for applications that look for crazy icon names. If the application is called easytag, that the icon is called easytag, not EasyTAG_Icon or something. I have modified my desktop files to use the proper icon, and I am not planning to ever get all the weird names that application developers thought up for their application icon in my theme. However, seeing this is all open and all, I wouldn't mind if someone else would do it someday, I'm just saying it's something I don't want to spend time on. Whatever application I come accross that doesn't use my icon in the launcher, I change the desktop file.

These symlinks will cause the theme to work with thunar

Icon theme looks really nice; out of curiosity, what window decorations/WM is that?
Offline
Like the thought of using a global icon layout scheme. It would be nice to see a layout scheme built for all desktops. Having a different layout for Gnome and KDE is one of those things 'grrr' things.

robrene, have you thought about putting this icon theme on the AUR?

robrene, created a PKGBUILD for you, if you want to put it in the AUR.

I didn't know license, but everything else should be good.

I'm not too familiar with licenses, I'm not even usre I'm complying in case some icons I used are released under different licenses. Picon is released under the GPL though.
I was thinking of opening up a google code account or something to do some more work on picon and then I could just release the icon-theme there instead of having some weird deviantart url. I think that the few people that want to use my icon-theme now can just download it themselves, I'll think about putting it in AUR aswell though. I noticed there are more icon-themes there. But I'll probably do that after I do a few more updates.

Looks great, fresh. Thanks robrene!

Actually, I've already incorporated the changes in my local copy of the icon theme. I've also added a mimetype for emerald files. Once I decide to put it on AUR I'll make sure it's the latest version

*updated to v0.2*
Check the first post
Also made a new preview, figured more people would download it if they saw what it was they were downloading.
