Inconsistency in device icons depending on Ubuntu icon size settings

[keunes]

Testing things for another bug with the launcher icons, I discovered that when I set the icon size 40 or higher, on my external monitor the icon for my windows partition is not the icon that I'm used to.

I reported a bug for Numix Circle, but apparently it's an issue with the base theme. Would expect icons to remain consistent, regardless of size settings :)

Expected (38 & under) and unexpected (40 and up) icon:

I'll fix this asap :)

[andia89]

What's the way to fix this? Adding polychrome icons to larger sizes as well? (Probably just a scaled up version of the 32x32 icons)

[Foggalong]

Yeah, I need to ask someone why the devices icons above 48px are monochrome and check it is intact just a case of never being updated.

[andia89]

Fortunately if we are going to add polychrome icons for larger sizes this might be a very easy task. Almost all the icons for lower sizes are nicely aligned to grid

[Foggalong]

Excellent :D

[andia89]

Obviously larger icons just weren't added. Looking at this commit only icons up to 48x48 were added

This issue should get a higher priority as the monochrome icons look really ugly on my desktop :p

[andia89]

I have the icons ready for 64px. As soon as the current PR is merged I can open a new one with the new icons :)
