Hey, thanks for the reply :D > Some answers to your questions: > > file formats - png for most icons, svg for scalable icons > > sizes - 16x16, 22x22, 24x24, 32x32, 48x48, the bigger you will probably > not need I figure producing them as svg means I can just export to whatever size I want? Only thing is, when I've exported icons I've already created, or simply viewed them as svg (thumbnail previews) they haven't looked as sharp as when I've produced them, instead looking slightly blurred. Is there any reason why this is?

I took a look at these, and the idea is pretty similar. The main icons I was after though were for the system tray etc in a theme where the rest of the icons were full colour! The high contrast theme seems to be missing some of the more common icons for this too, such as software update/battery/wireless etc. Maybe I can look into feeding any icons I create back upstream to these people? The other difference was that while they've made the icons largely black, I've used a slightly more balanced approach between white and black in the icons, with an overall lighter feel to them... Anyway, thanks again for the reply - would love to hear if anybody thought these icons were of any value :D Jon _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
