Gnome Icon Status Report
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
as of August 22th, 1999
by mawa
WHAT'S GOING ON?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are people painting icons; I put them into CVS... that's about
all.:)
GITHNYBM has been updated. The gnome-icons module should be the first
place anyone wanting to paint icons for the project should go.
Telsa <hobbit@aloss.ukuu.org.uk> is putting together a couple of
panel background pixmaps. The one he sent me as an appetiser is great
already; I can't wait to see the rest. If anyone has got more such
pixmaps, they should contact Telsa or me.
THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Applet desktop entries changed and committed:
SlashApp now installs and uses slashapp.png;
the Gnome Fish installs and uses gnome-fish.png;
GEyes installs and uses gnome-eyes.png.
Foot menu desktop entries changed and committed:
gfontsel installs and uses gnome-fontsel.png;
gnome-util.png has been added to gnome-core/pixmaps and is now used by
Utilities.directory.
gnome-admin now installs a .directory file for Administration;
gEdit now uses gnome-gedit.png like they should.
The author/maintainer of the Character Picker applet has announced
that he is going to take care of providing an icon.

icon
- "Show documentation index", "Show history window" and "Show
bookmarks window" in the help browser using same stock pixmap
TOTAL
~~~~~
We still need about 75 icons. I must remark that the total number of
entries in my foot menu, which is the only base for my estimates, is
rising all the time :). Lots of the icons that we need have already
been made and only need to be put in the tree. I'll try not to
procrastinate too much and do it soon.
Thanks to all who have contributed.
REMARKS
~~~~~~~
Send any ideas, remarks or contributions to me as I have now got
official permission to add them to the CVS tree. Have a look at
GITHNYBM if you want to make icons.
A note for Ben and everyone else who paints icons: please, please, do
not only keep them on some Web page and tell us "hey, I've updated
them". The question is, which ones? At least keep a ChangeLog on your
site so I can see which icons have been added and which have been
changed. That would make my job considerably easier. Thank you.
