I am not sure if this is fixed or not. In Thunderbird 31 the monochrome set has been replaced with Windows95 style ugly icons (clunky cartoonish). Is this the intended fix or is the icon set now completely broken? As to the comment above, I help by using, spreading the word and testing, but I cannot code so there is not much more some of us can do. Not all users are coders.

In Oneiric (and Precise) some of the coloured Icons were replaced by black&white pictograms, but not consistently all. For example the Lightning Icons still remain coloured, as they were before. I don't know why some Icons were replaced by pictograms (is this because of a new GTK-Theme?) , this is only in the Linux version of TB, the Windows version still has the coloured icons. It would have been better if the old standard theme remains untouched, and a new theme would have been created for the new black&white pictograms. See attached screenshot for the weird icons. Possible work-around: Download Thunderbird from mozilla, extract a file called omni.ja and overwrite the copy at /usr/lib/thunderbird/. Not sure if this has undesired effects (it may delete all your email, so be careful!), but it works for me.
