Regarding the first, it's very important that you not replace the about box logo with something that says "GAIM". The program is always to be referred to as "Gaim" or "gaim", as outlined in the FAQ.
Gaim 2.0.0 has a number of icons from lokheed's previous icon theme. Regarding the specific icons... The Gaim developers are split on the clock vs. notepad icon for away. I don't think it's a good idea to replace the generic Jabber icon with an icon clearly based on the Google Talk icon. The Yahoo icon is even less recognizable than the current one we have in Gaim. I don't like the replacement of the Gaim dude icons wholesale. The status ones incorporate the icon for a web browser, which is really confusing. The dialog ones are nice, but the Gaim Cool icon has been replaced with something that indicates a clear lack of understanding about what that icon is used for. I really with the creator of these icons would've brought them to us for inclusion upstream, but he didn't. I found a previous version from a user's suggestion. As I mentioned, I included many of them upstream. However, the creator of those icons wasn't willing to work with us on changing some icons to meet the developers' requirements. To be fair, I rejected some of them right away without providing reasons (which I intended on getting to later) which set a bad tone. I could detail more issues, which are not as critical, but it's really late here... Regarding the second set... I like some of those better, but I'm not going to detail it. All in all, if you feel there are specific icons in these themes that are better than those in Gaim 2.0.0 now, I'd be willing to look at including them upstream, which seems like a far better thing for everyone involved. I'd really rather not see Ubuntu with different icons (unless their entire desktop theme were to vary a lot from the respective upstream projects). It increases the support costs on both sides, and deprives Gaim users on other distros of nicer icons. -- tango icon set https://launchpad.net/bugs/61986 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
