You appear to have missed something. I have made BOTH CrystalSVG and HiColor icons for these new icons. So, I fail to see your point. And, what are those icons themes in KDEArtWork? >> Then why does GNOME support HiColor and ship a HiColor theme. >> Supporting HiColor means having a HiColor theme -- shipping a HiColor >> theme like GNOME does. > > The index.theme file we have for hicolour comes from freedesktop and > is exactly the same as Gnome has. That has nothing to do with what I said which was that GNOME ships a HiColor icon theme: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.14/2.14.1/sources/gnome-icon-theme-2.14.2.tar.bz2 To correct what you said. The GNOME package does not include the "index.theme" file but rather requires that you install: http://freedesktop.org/software/icon-theme/releases/hicolor-icon-theme-0.5.tar.gz KDE has an "index.theme" file for HiColor in the KDELibs package. IIRC, it was modified slightly although I can't remember exactly how or why. -- JRT
