Also I wanted to hear what people though about SVG icons, and possible "enhanced" SVG icons. =20 Enhancements being connecting the kcontrol "look&feel - colors" controls into them. For example you create a icon set with a primary and secondary "changeable" color. Users then pick which colors they want to use...so your Icon set will work with mostly anyones desktop... Of course you would always be able to create "static" colored icons that can't be changed. Possibly even making the SVG icons change based on various file attributes such as file size, file permissions... For example, a sudo 3D file system could be created right in Konqueror... different files sizes create different icons, (it would be good to make the scale relative to the other contents of the directory.... or changing the colors to red if there is no permission to access the file... and of course SVG animation... Now, like I said before I'm not a serious programmer so all of this could be that of dreams...and of course there's the question of will it make KDE as slow as nautilus (yes I know they're working on it) if all this is possible and implemented? just some thoughts...
