I think that Garrett has a lot of insight on this (I have a super power, the ability to point out the obvious) I know that he creates icon sheets (one big image with a grid), and makes use of some xml files and a program called icon-slicer. What slicer will do is take that sheet and split it into individual files. makes it a lot easier for management.

You can check out the fedora-artwork, or is it still called redhat-artwork, out of CVS and see all of this.

As which programs he uses I thought that he was making use of Adobe Illustrator. I have been trying out sodipodi, and the new GIMP.

Well we need to work on this some more. It would be nice to have a OSS
software for vector graphics on Linux. We should push the vector
graphics developers into gear.

This was something I think we should take very seriously. I am glad that
you have said that you have a license for your proprietary software. We
need to enforce that if people use Adobe, Macromedia etc then they must
have legal copies of the software. I personally do not want to work with
people that are using illegal software. That would not effect the person
using the software illegally but us as well, the Fedora project and Red
hat itself. We do not want to get sued.

| Icons I usually do the hard way pixel by pixel in Gimp.

That sounds like a good way to do it. Anyone else have a way that they
make icons? What about that list of applications that need icons now ;)
