Artist's Comments

This is an extensive set of icon themes based on GNOME and Tango, with some inspiration from Human, Tango Generator, Elementary, and other open source projects. The project's goal is to integrate closely with gnome-icon-theme, while greatly expanding its available icons and allowing users to choose from 7 completely different and unique color schemes.

The icons and their color schemes are designed to complement my Shiki-Colors GTK Themes and their additional artwork.

There are 7 color variations: Brave (Blue), Wise (Green), Human (Orange), Noble (Purple), Wine (Red), Dust (Chocolate) and Illustrious (Pink).

GNOME-Colors consistently themes 99% of default icons + 1000's more in almost every popular linux distribution. Every single icon included in the set is drawn perfectly at each and all sizes, so you will never have to see a blurry icon ever again!

Important, must read or clowns will eat you:
* To install, extract the downloaded .zip file, and drag and drop the included .tar.gz file into GNOME's Appearance Preferences, or extract it and copy the gnome-* folders to /usr/share/icons as administrator (i.e. sudo nautilus /usr/share/icons in Ubuntu). The gnome-colors-common folder is a required dependency. You MUST install it in order for all the icon sets to work correctly.

* You may alternately use the Makefiles included in the .tar.gz file; for system-wide installation, just type make install as administrator or make user-install for per-user installation. For more options, type make help.

* If you installed the icons through the appearance preferences, for the icons to theme root/admin applications in Ubuntu, you must type in a terminal:
sudo ln -s ~/.icons /root

* In Ubuntu, you can use the official PPA repository for easy installation and upgrades. For Ubuntu Karmic Koala, you can simply run apt-get install gnome-colors to install from Ubuntu's official repositories.

* Visit the GNOME-Colors project page for bug reports, feature requests, SVN and more downloads:

* Consider donating a small amount to the GNOME-Colors project if you wish to support it, or to show your appreciation. You can do so by clicking on the "donate" button in the project page, or by sending a paypal donation to perfectska04@gmail.com

CHANGELOG:
GNOME-Colors depends on the package "gnome-icon-theme". If you don't use GNOME, make sure you have it!

5.5 (2009-09-25)
* New, redesigned folders!
* Add folder-xdg icons for Karmic/GNOME 2.28.
* Add some new icons/update others for better Karmic support.
* Minor bugfixes.

It's always best to remove a previous version before upgrading!

These sets are very nice.
I am a noob to Ubuntu and found your instructions for install a tad frustrating, until I realized that unlike with Windows, I don't use the quote (i.e. ';) around the path and then it installed just fine.

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to create this set. Though I do have to ask, are you planning on adding anymore colors, say a lavender or violet or a gray / black perchance?
:iconperfectska04:
Glad you could finally install them, although it should be as easy as drag n' dropping on the appearance preferences. For now, there aren't any plans to add more colors yet, since each color takes a considerable amount of hours to finish, and I'm the only one working on the project. Hopefully, once GNOME 2.24 ships, I'll do some final adjustments and then shift towards making new colors.
:iconzsantz:
I used the scripts that you provided and terminal.

Whether you make more colors or not, I'll be using your set. They look very nice and you obviously know what you're doing.
:iconperfectska04:
Oh, right. If you're using the scripts, Whenever you see 'this' in the instructions, you should only copy the text inside.
