This is the development discussion of ICONS for Inkscape.

David Horsley, please rsend your SVG file type icon for windows to the development list for inkscape (inkscape_bayo_screeshot.jpg)

DEFENDGUIN and others have been asking about ICON development. We need to figure out where we stand on this? Do we want to develop ALL new icons, or replace some existing ones, or fill-in the ones we don't have completed?

Is anyone familiar with the procedure on how to design and implement new icons in the Inkscape Interface? It would be helpful if someone (bulia? ahem... :) ) could take the time to lay-out how to do this for some newbies to the project (DEFENDGUIN, myself, etc).

Stock Icons

This list is here to provide a guide of what gnome stock icon names match functions, tools and dialogs in inkscape. By referencing to these icons it allows inkscapes icon set to be modified by the global gnome theme.

I'll be creating gnome style icons for the functions not yet included and submit them to the gnome icon theme to be distributed with the rest of the stock gnome icons - AndyFitz
