[ubuntu-art] Icon library
Hi, I came across a nice app which can be useful for icon artists. :) https://code.launchpad.net/icon-library/+download Download the tar.gz , extract it and run icon-library.py I find it useful to check - if the symlinks are correct / if we missed any symlinks - how the icons look on different backgrounds. Almost like a twf for icons ;) I wouldnt say the app is perfect , but i found it useful to check the integrity of the icon set. But it seems the developer has not focused on it for a long time, when contacted the author said he had developed the icon-library to help him pick icons for apps He wanted ideas to improve it and people to file bugs ;) Or if someone forks the app and improves it , do inform the artwork ML too... ;) -- Cheers, mac_v -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

[ubuntu-art] Icon Library again... feedback plz.
Hi, A while back i let people know about the little app i was working on. Well, I have added a few features people had asked for: 1) Manually select themes to open (Browse to index.theme file) http://picasaweb.google.com/matthew.joseph.mcgowan/IconLibrary#5257576834586235490 2) An Icon set editor has been added. To open the editor right click on an icon set in the list view and select 'Icon set properties'. It works well in most cases but it definitely needs testing. Moreover, I would welcome some usability suggestions on what would be the most natural way to edit icon sets. http://picasaweb.google.com/matthew.joseph.mcgowan/IconLibrary#5257576838453371282 3) You can jump to the 'target' icon set in the list view when the selected icon set is a symlink http://picasaweb.google.com/matthew.joseph.mcgowan/IconLibrary#5257578937428801058 I plan on adding custom background colors when time allows. As for now i welcome any feedback and further suggestions, and definitely contact me when you inevitably find some bugs. You can download the tar.gz here: http://code.launchpad.net/icon-library/trunk/alpha1/+download/icon-library-16102008.tar.gz I look forward to your comments.

O.K i setup a BZR branch at launchpad: https://launchpad.net/icon-library Looks like you did :) This is already a very nice tool and could be very useful for the Breathe icon effort. For which customisable background colors would be cool, although I guess it's easy to adjust them in the script :) Thank you, rock on! -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
