New supported packages: menulibre, pragha New icons: for adwaita-icon-theme, some symbolic icons Removed icons: five-or-more, four-in-a-row, tali, bijiben, evolution, california, geary, some mimetypes icons
Thanks a lot, like these icons very much!
I'm running FreeBSD and plain Openbox with PCmanFM file manager. Tried various installed icon sets, but it would always show the "default" (kinda ugly) theme.
Setting your icon set in .gtkrc-2.0 works perfectly well!!
...First of all, the folder icons are blue instead of the default greenish-khaki.
Secondly, more MIME types now get their individual icon, not just default: things like MS Win apps get their own icons instead of the standard "application" icon...
So, great thanks!!! I exhausted all my wits to make various icon sets work in PCmanFM, then suddeny yours works like charm. Good job :)
Hi!
First of all, let me thank you for your work once again.
However I've got an issue that prevent me from using this theme: in Thunar the folder icons fallback to the gnome ones...Here a screenshot:

Strangely enough, the special folder are correctly displayed.
Thank you in advance, bye!
Thank you very much! Perfect!
Thanks for the quit reply!
Cheser and Clearlooks-Phenix gave the ultimate "vintage" experience to my desktop (Have you ever think about merge/get in contact/suggest echt other work for better visibility? Clearlooks-Phenix even entered Debian Repos and I would love to see Cheser there too.)
Thanks again!
Thanks for the icon set, looks great! I made a package for Arch Linux too! https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44787
Although, I noticed there's one little issue. There isn't a "desktop.png" icon in places (i.e. Cheser/*x*/places/desktop.png), which seems to be used by MGSE (a part of mint 12) and a few other applications. It's just symbolic link of user-desktop.png, but it should be added because other themes have it.
I can't exactly remember all the applications but a handful of them were gnome-shell extensions. Probably the most important is the MGSE Windowlist, which is a main part of Linux Mint 12 (the show desktop icon uses it). You can take a look at the source if you want to take a look:
https://github.com/linuxmint/MGSE
or take a look at Linux Mint 12:

I'm on Arch using some of the MGSE and encountered this issue.
Hi!!! I really like your icon theme, it's old school and it's cool :)
Only one suggestion: I found the emblem-symbolic-link icon a little bit ugly...it's too big to be an emblem imho.
Why don't you use gnome-colors emblem-symbolic-link icon?
Thank you very much, bye!
Hi!
GNOME-Colors "emblem-symbolic-link" is from gnome-icon-theme-2.28. Cheser "emblem-symbolic-link" is from gnome-icon-theme-3.0. I try to use the latest version of gnome-icon-theme.
In gnome-icon-theme-3.0 "emblem-readonly", "emblem-shared", "emblem-symbolic-link", "emblem-synchronizing", "emblem-unreadable" are one style icons.

P.S. You can always change icons, that you don't like.
Oh, I understand ;)
I suggest you that because in my opinion the "old" symbolic emblem is more good looking than the new one...
Here with the old

And here the new

Imho in the second screenshot we can see how big the symbolic emblem is, it almost cover the whole icon.
Btw, is a matter of taste ;)
Thank you very much!!
I made this icon theme only for GNOME. Here is a mine screenshot (Fedora 15/GNOME 3). I think, that icon size is fine.

oh, that's the problem then!
I'm using cheser on my xfce system, with thunar file manager...
Maybe this is a problem that I must submit to xfce developers...
Thank you very much ;)

Hi! Can you write for what applications this "desktop" icon is need?
