I am considering these icons for Puppy 2.15CE Office edition. Any comments?

I will upload a test package to the PSI repos for mirroring.

Cheers

My advice is whatever the objections, go with this.
This is the Wow factor. Puppy thanks to so much great effort works fast. Now it can look the way it is . . .

Woof woof

Be careful about making them too big though. It can get crowded at lower resolutions.

Personally, I've always preferred colorful things to gray, but that's me, and leads me to do stuff like the old test-pattern splash screen Puppy used to have, which may have caused retinal damage to several people. Embarassed

They do look pretty slick though, and they help the wallpaper show through (which compensates for their lack of color).

Thumbs up from me Smile

they really look great.
I prefer them to all those modern Windows icon clones Smile

Yes, such a firefox-icon would look great I think.

No, I don't control /incoming at puppyfiles.org, only puppyisos.org.

It really gets time I finish the webinterface to upload on your own.

Maybe this weekend.

Um Ok , Woah...!

Serious Snafu here...!

Ok , I've downloaded all the these icon's from www.kdelook.org , Now try to stay with me here.., In that picture in the first post that WhoDo posted - The icons look great..! , I mean awesome.! , But when i downloaded and extracted them - And tried to use them to replace some of my current icons - they look absolutely Horrible..!

You can't see half of them and the one's you can see you can't make out fully...

Example - When i apply the "Firefox1.png" icon to my desktop it is:

(1) - Way too small to make out what it is and that it is a "Fox" wrapped around an earth globe..

(2) - the reason why the icons look the way they do is because all the color has been removed from them , Not because they've been "Glassed" or "Frosted"..

i applied a darker background on my desktop and the icons don't show up much at all at that point...

In that picture the icons look good , yea , But notice how larger they are..?

Did anyone else notice any of this..??? Sorry for sounding so negative...
