Only 32 to go :)
Small update on the status of the new mime-types I'm getting ready for the 4.6 release of Oxygen icon set for KDE.
As you can see we have some additions to our collection like the Qt-quick qml mime-type, or the color profiles one. Only 32 are missing now :D

Anyway, you did a great work as always!
Thanks to people like you KDE 4.6 will be the best realease ever!! (as usual :D)
My only complaint is that I'm not quite sure how international is the torrent icon. Is it understandable for languages other than English?
@Anonymous plans for 4.7 well make more icons :D
@Anonymous5 yeah I'm not 100% happy with it yet.
@Naproxeno well its works in several languages and from my research seams like a common metaphor
So, I think that if you continue with your bautiful designs, but add more colors and shapes to your habitual palette, clarity, and ergo usability, would be significantly improved.
Saludos e obrigada.pelo teu trabalho (excuse my portuguese, lol)
some thoughts:
- isn't that torrent arrow suposed to be blue? like ktorrent?
- first batch was more vivid and clear, much less blur and bigger details - which is good
- last post is really really blury :/
- why qt icon is paper plane?
- and probably most important thing: there is a lot of inconsistency with placement and sizes of this "details" e.g big blue globe is lower and more to the right than that silver cylinders (database icon?), cup of coffe is almost out of frame, A-icon, grenn puzzle, tunes, arrow, blender etc. are really small but orange flower is bigger (and again - brush is almost out of icon frame) and it's lower than silver cylinders on the left... there is a lot of things like that, the look of icons is great but arrangement is crazy almost each icon have different floorplan, you should think about it, set 2 or 3 sizes and figure out the center of placement, make them more standard as a whole set not every icon idividualy, if you want I can help you with it
PSS keep rockin' :)
PSSS sorry for my bad english
you are probably right, but I hate to follow absolute strict rules and tend to do them as its works for me at the time I'm making them, if i would define rules the process would probably take much much longer and I unfortunately don't have time for that. ON a side note the first mime-types we did had much more rules, and still I think this new ones are more consistent.
Some things in design are more subjective than objective.
@Anonymous (color one)
Well i like them better this way, to much color makes a mess the previous ones suffered allot from that
thanks again for the comments
the fact that you don't need the big sizes does not mean no one will it has a lot of use-cases and it's already available in dolphin and this size is the one that dolphin uses the most for scaling, giiii.
