Thanks @quassy for creating this list. I already included the Spotify icon. TraumaD91 has allowed for his icons to be included, e.g. the alternative Steam icon and his Steam Game icon collection. I personally prefer his round version, to the squared one. What do you think?
Oh, Steam Games look good as well but the sizes differ - weird. At 128px some squares and circles are bigger than others (even though these sizes are actually standardized).
I agree on the round Steam icon. There are too many squares already and it also has a nice touch of color.
@quassy @mank319 Just to let you all know I am currently working on a lot of updates to my icons and working on a few new ones. The new updates should fix all the inconsistency issues. You are more than welcome to use any of my icons in this pack. Some new icon I'm working on are Soptify (with the newer styled icon), updates to my google icons, several new games for the steam games pack. Just an FYI. Also I am in agreement to use my steam icon not trying to self promote but for the shear fact that it matches more closely the official icon and also the panel icon follows the new rules for indicators in Freya.
@quassy @mank319 Also for a minecraft icon I think we should use the ones located here they also are by an elementary team member but, are in svg format and support all the correct sizes.
Another addition to the list; a Skype icon. http://mastropino.deviantart.com/art/eSkype-204048506
Also, elementaryicons 2.7.1 contains some third-party icons. https://launchpad.net/elementaryicons/+download
Do you know those? http://ori.iblogger.org/icons/ http://amathadius.deviantart.com/art/Chromium-icon-eOS-394709265
There is no licence information attached but maybe he'd approve of having them included.
@palob I really like that Chromium icon a lot! I contacted the author on Deviantart.
Hi!
If there are new icons added how are we going to add/install it? And if we do need to remove the previous installation of icons before installing new ones, how?
Thank you
@Polochamps For now, you can update by re-downloading the repo content and reinstalling the icon theme via the installer or just moving the elementaryPlus folder to /home/user/.icons/.
@Polochamps I guess upgrading will only get more complicated if icons are actually removed. (Which has not happened yet, I think.)
@cybre @quassy
So by just merging the "new" 16, 22, 32 etc folders on the current elementaryPlus folder will do?
Thank you
Yes!
Hope you can add this as a solution for dropbox ;) https://github.com/nathandyer/elementary-dropbox-mods
Speaking of including.... In case you don't know yet, for whatever reason someone has madea fork of elementaryPlus trying to achieve the same. So far there's been good progress.
Could you link the fork? Working together might be more productive ;)
I totally agree with @quassy. @varlesh would you like to work directly with us?
Whoops, sorry forgot the link.
I think including those icons is a great idea : http://traumad91.deviantart.com/gallery/ Spotify icon is much better than the current one.
Maybe the authors of some icons at DeviantArt would allow there icons to be used too. Not all of them are perfect but most fit the elementary style quite well.
