Hi everyone!
I wanted to share 2 icon themes for updating the look of TDE:
-Crystal SVG Updated
http://www.filefactory.com/file/2sm4lju0j1ap/n/crystalsvg_zip
This icon theme comes from PCLOS MiniME 2008 (KDE 3.5.x). I don't know if
it is an official update of the old Crystal SVG or a theme made by the
PCLOS team, but it is a more modern version of it.
-Oxygen for KDE3
http://www.filefactory.com/file/5w394u74iua9/n/oxy-tde_zip
This is the theme used in my PCLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster. It comes
from
kde-look.org
I personally think that keeping the old Crystal SVG theme as the default
theme is not
good for the TDE project. The people who haven't used TDE will think that
it is always the same old project as KDE3. It just looks too old and of
course, the more actual Oxygen icon theme will go this way one day or
another, but as of now, I think that it would be a good idea for TDE to
use Oxygen or another icon theme, at least this updated version of Crystal
SVG.
I still don't like the way Oxygen looks; most of the newer icon themes
from the past few years seem rather dark and muddied, which can make
finding a particular icon or GUI element difficult when many of them are
shown on the screen.
Does a "modern", bright icon theme with relatively high contrast between
icons even exist?
On the technical end, using newer icon themes means that Bug 1313 must
first be be resolved...
The same idea goes with the general theme. We
aren't used to the
''vanilla KDE 3.5.10'' these days. Themes with big lines separating GUI
elements aren't used anymore and even during the KDE 3.5.x days, almost
no distros used the default theme.
Which widget style are you referring to?
This is just my personal opinion...
Understood. :-) Thank you for your input!

Hi all,
First I wish you all a great new year.
Now, to get in the subject:
The greatest looking icon theme I ever found (the one I still use) came long ago
with the Baghira theme.
The icons are very very nice.
I must say I still use my own custom made (compiled) Baghira full theme because
I love its look.
Since Baghira is not suported anymore (for years now), its colorful icons could
be reused?
My 2 cents on the subject...
