Excellent! The 6.x conversion is going to be somewhat tricky, I'll probably look to it after we get the slotlist.csv and understudies worked out. But 6.x has a few tricks I'm excited about.
I just finished an icons theme for the documents files.
I second Oscar's reserves concerning the pie chart and presentation icons not being too modern. I would also add that I don't like very much the idea of the old database icon, instead of a bookshelf or the like.
What I really like is the color scheme: white and clear blue - exactly as the Aqua interface. Easy on the eye, and very pleasant.

Btw, although I haven't done anything with it yet, I took a look at the slotlist.csv file in TextEdit and noticed the following:
Code:
115, allignment.png, slot:10130, does not work!
Could that be because it is misspelt? That is, it should be alignment.png and not allignment.png?? _________________ PBG4, 1.5GHz, SuperDrive, 1GB RAM, 128MB VRAM, 5400rpm 80GB HD, MacOS X 10.4.5

Not really. If you give your picture that name (misspelled and all), it will be picked up. There's a couple in there that seem wrong. I worked over that spreadsheet (but not shared - Geocities refused to accept a file with .sxc) and there were a few points of divergence.
I hope (and trust) the new (Ximian) list is better. It is better organized anyway.. _________________ "What do you think of Western Civilization?"

Did you ever post this set, M-Rick?
Actually I am not in my country, I don't have a fast internet connection, so I can't post for them yet. That will be possible maybe in around 1 month.

As will I. In the mean time I have started clowning around a bit myself. Nothing ready for showing off yet. The gnome icons wouldn't be so bad if they didn't all come with a black border. Too heavy for my taste.
I will report back here when I get a decent set. The object insert, zoom and form toolbars are giving me aesthetic pain still.
Au revoir,
Oscar

Thanks Oscar.
Sounds exciting, with a number of folk working on this. I find the gnome icons bland, alhough very neat and consistent. I must admit I am "eye candy" sort of user: why not have an attractive feature set loking back at you, as well as an effective program underneath?

So I've got about a week of free time on the horizion, either the end of this month or the start of the next. I might dill around with NeoIconer further, but was wondering if there was anything more useful I might be doing (from research to begging for MacTel machines.)
I've come to realize I'll never have the consisten free time to instigate and follow through an effort to create a dev team for toolbar icons, but I would gladly support any effort as I could. Including building special tools and solving other technical problems....

I haven't forgotten about this, but the process if slow, the set is not helping and in the last few weeks my new job and Neo/J release tasks have eaten up most of my time.
