Hello, I love your work and don't want to come of as ungrateful in any way. I would like to add my opinions on what I think would be some nice improvements.

  1. I would like to see .pdf files get their own icon of some type, at the moment they appear to use the standard word document icon, which can be quite confusing at a glance

  2. it would be nice to have an icon for for when the battery is charging as it currently appears to revert to the default one when my laptop is plugged in.

  3. I would like to see the icon for .zip and .tar.gz files etc (compressed files) changed to something more like the zipped folder icon in the previous more authentic icon issue.

Once again this project is your baby and I love what you have done, these are just my personal opinions and desires. Thank you for all your hard work!

hello,

sorry for being a little bit late.

I'll try to give time to patch this soon. For the 2nd request you need to tell me what desktop you're using so I can test it (some have different icon names)

for the 3rd one can you post an example? I don't really get what you mean

I am using Ubuntu with the cinnamon desktop. as for an example e5fd0e10-a5f2-11e6-8528-b1325ed69f44 something like this maybe. Again don't feel stressed about it lol, love the icons either way just adding my 2 cents. Thanks for the response, glad your still active!

I too would appreciate a different icon for PDFs. I have tried to implement it myself but it's well beyond my skills.

I use Mate desktop and the only other improvement I can think of would be changing the 'Open your personal folder' icon at the top to gohome.png instead of folder_home.png

This is a really nice icon set! I'm using Xfce, and I'm noticing the Sound icon for pavucontrol looks like an image icon. It would be nice to have the XP sound icon in the tray. TIA
