The Gentoo Icon Set (you may also request) Vol 1

[Anior]

There is a nice mud client out there (and in portage) called mmucl. Would be nice with an icon for it.
However, it is currently lacking a logo so it can't be cut and pasted. :-(

[Wolven]

I tried making a Mmucl logo/icon, see if you like it.
Mmucl

I also made two other MUD icons in the process.
M.U.D
Gnome-MUD

[Anior]

Looks great.
Thanks Wolven, you are a saint.

(I showed this to the mmucl dev, hopefully he'll like it as much as I do)

[Swift]

is there a ut2k4 icon?
like the ut2k3 icon http://www.gentoo.org/images/icons/l33t_GAM_UT2K3.png , just with the blue U from ut2k4 ( http://www.insideapple.com/ia_images/upload_images/ut2004_icon.png )

[lytenyn]

So - why isn't there an ebuild for the gentoo-icon-set? (this being gentoo, after all )

Maybe this question has already been asked and/or answered, but I cant' look through 30 or so pages of one thread and the search function does not tell me on which page words occur ..

If there will be no ebuild - how can I insert these icons into kde (so that they replace the others without me changing one by one??)

thanks in advance!

[Wolven]

Here are some new icons.

UT2004
(This one is for you Swift)

Gnome ALSA mixer

Mozilla (star icon)

DOSBox
UAE
Wine

[Swift]

[ProT-0-TypE]

[Swift]

another question:
the firefox icon from here: http://www.gentoo.org/dyn/icons/BRO.xml is diffrent to the others (missing shadow)

is there also one with the shadow?

When you create an icon from a logo, you probably have to remove the background in order to receive transparency to put the logo into the l33t-bubble.

The problem is, you most probably get those nasty white (or whatever bg-color it was) frame around the logo.

Solution:

open the logo with GIMP
Use the color picker tool to select the background Color.
Filters -> Colors -> Color to Alpha
hit OK and see the effect

(see http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Changing_Background_Color_1/ for whole tutorial)

Some examples:

grabbed logo from about screen: http://www.eternium.de/temp/kasablanca.png
all white removed manually: http://www.eternium.de/temp/kasablanca_alpha_bg.png
color to alpha: http://www.eternium.de/temp/kasablanca_alpha_2_bg.png

Hello again,

I wondered if it would be nice to have a square version of the gentoo icon. The circle has too much space wasted IMHO. All images are rectangles and most logos fit into rectangles. So I gave it a try.

Have a look at http://www.eternium.de/temp/l33tbox_FTP_kasablanca.png
and compare it with http://www.eternium.de/temp/l33t_FTP_kasablanca.png.

Tell me what you think.

Which of the icons are under the GPL?

I'm trying to figure out which icons have the same license as the rest of Gentoo ..

Thanks!

Guys,

Does anyone have a copy of the Gimp base file for creating these icons?

I'd like to make a few but all the links in the first few pages to the template file are broken

Thanks

Robbie

Wolven -

Do you have an icon up your sleeve for a calendar app like sunbird?

Thanks
