Yes, there is a new (Layer) Set icon designed, which inherent from Layer icon, and is totally different than old one (blue folder). I sent a picture listed all related icons here few days before( sorry I cannot attach the picture at the moment via my mobile phone mail client.

Hi all!
Just one remark. Please don't forget the focus of the icon metaphor. Regarding to color, please consider to run Synfig Studio in a b&w monitor and check if each icon-metaphor is still readable.
Remember that "vector" is not the whole metaphor. It is more for 2D coordinate than for vector (in many cases vector means direction and length, which is not the case here).
I suggest to work more on the metaphor meaning and after that design the icon.
This is my proposal for the vector type icon:
Regarding to Group Layer we need to think something different than for Set of layers.
Group layer is a special layer that holds layers that are together in a stack and allow to work with all them together. Set of layers is something that allow to work with scattered layers along the composition. The folder icon for Group layer is fine. Also the box icon is fine to me but i understand that there are preferences on that.
On the other side, Set icon should meet the Set metaphor: "scattered layers that can be modified together". What about design a new icon for Set that really differs from the Group icon? (excuse me if there is a new design of the Set icon but I'm not aware of it)
Cheers!

the folder icon making it easy to change the color -

But the best would be to have a retouched version of box.
Thank you!
