New splendid icons

[Angelo]

Hello,
I've found on the web some splendid icon set, wchich is free and I'm pretty sure that the author woldn't mind to use thoose icons in the code::blocks.

And next: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/mini/

I think that they're really pretty, and implementing them, would increase general feeling.

Write what do you think.
regards, angelo.

Hi !!

Sure they're beautiful and look free !!
I wonder how difficult it could be to integrate them in C::B because user can choose icon size and this collection propose only one mini size.

I keep the link for other applications I will work on, I don't feel an icon designer.

So, I guess that we could write to the icon set author , and ask him, if he could make thoose icons in 32x32 size. If no, I've got another idea. C::B dev's could make c::b, that it would write icons from the specified folder, something like in the IzArc archiver, but not exactly (whole icon set no in the one image, but separately).

[dje]

Yes, I but if you look at the images directory, notice that all images are at png format !

[Angelo]

but there's not problem to convert them.

Those icons are already in png format

that's for Thomas and Yiannis to check , if those can be used or not. So don't get too excited, since their might be special conditions that needs to be fulfilled

might i recommend the tango-project (http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Gallery) for nice looking icons?

they are under the "Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike license" and can be freely used.

since there are already icon-packs for GNOME, KDE and even WindowsXP (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/27940418/) Code::Blocks would nicely blend into the OS.

apart from all these things the icons are really nice ;-)


there is also a sub-project called "CodeTangoSet" (http://tango.freedesktop.org/CodeTangoSet) which tries to collect programming and IDE-centric icons. (actually this project is almost non-existant at this very moment, but i guess new icons created with the tango-style guidelines in mind would be more than welcomed)

Yeah I like (and use) the Tango icons. BTW CodeTangoSet. Hey that is kewl. How come I haven't seen that til now.

Those other icons are nice. I just happen to like the Tango icons better. No offense Angelo.

For me, "tango" icons, are to much "tango", but it's taste point.
