Looks nice. Some comments:

[Apps]
go.png looks too cluttered. 
go2.png looks fine.
kmail.png looks excellent.

network.png looks too 3D to me to be recognized well at lower sizes: Attached 
to this mail you'll find an illustration that shows how the icons will look 
at 16x16 (second column) or 32x32 (default-size). 
At 16x16 they are hard to be recognized - especially if this is the size in 
which you see them at the very first time. It's even worse if you don't have 
alphablending enabled in KDE - then you won't have any shadows and jagged 
borders.
Of course one can always create 2D-16x16-versions to prevent this but the user 
will have a hard time to associate the tiny 2D-versions with the larger 
3D-versions if you overdo it.

[filesystem]

home16.png - looks like an arrow pointing up.

[devices] 

They all lack a little bit contrast 

> Are these icons for KDE3?

I would very much appreciate if Everaldo would offer his icons in the form of 
iconthemes and give permission for adding them to CVS ( I would appreciate it 
even more if he would just add them to cvs, module art-devel instead of 
spamming this list with screenshots ;-) . 
I'd put them into kdeartwork for KDE 3.0. For KDE 3.1 I'd like to see some of 
the icons merged into the default-icontheme (i.e. kdelibs/kdebase).


Greetings,
Tackat
