Hi,

There is a set of four high contrast themes for gnome which seem pretty effective, but the icon sets are incomplete which makes everything rather untidy. To see what I mean install the package gnome-accessibility-themes and select one of the high contrast themes. You will see that some menu entries and applications are fairly complete, while others only partially so. This image shows openoffice, which is the worst offender not using any high contrast icons at all, behind gedit which is complete: http://people.ubuntu.com/~henrik/images/contrast-icons.png

I've filed a bug on openoffice since it seems not to know about the existing high contrast icons:

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org2-amd64/+bug/27191

but the icon set itself is limited too. It might actually be that most of the gaps can be filled by setting suitable symlinks to existing icons (like making the firefox icon point at gnome-globe.png)

Does someone want to chart this set against the list at http://daniel.holba.ch/ubuntu/ic/ and see what can be done to make it more complete (or appear more complete)?

If some icons are missing in the high-contrast theme, check out the kde-icon-mono package. There is quite a collection of icons in there so hopefully it will be easier to fill the gaps in the high contrast theme for gnome (and hopefully when the icon-naming-spec gets supported by the two big desktops they can merge).
