Yes I did :-)

They should all have vector versions available, but yes, they should all
follow the same "rules".

Of coure I was suggesting removing many of the pics that are included
now.

I think that KDE only needs to include one set of these kind of icons.
Extra stuff should be kept extra. And we do have to change somethings in
between major versions or ntohing wouls get done.

I think that working together towards the best solution would be a good
idea. Don't take all this so personaly, it is not a popularity contest.
There has been a fair amount of critic on some of the graphics in the
current package so I do not think it would hurt to work on this stuff
some more. That was my point.

Kenneth
