Intention

DanRabbit indicated on deviantART, that the original theme is most likely to be limited to applications installed on elementary OS by default. I understand that decision. They want to keep the theme clean and compact.

This is why I hope for this repository to become a central place to collect additions that integrate third party applications into the elementary desktop.

Contribute

I am waiting for your pull requests and would love to see this theme become as complete as possible.

Please make sure that your icons fit the overall look and feel of elementary OS. It is advised to have a look at elementary OS's human interface guidelines for icons before you start designing.

If you are planning to implement status icons you may want to check Faba or Numix beforehand. They make a good base for monochromatic status icons.
