Hi there!
I've been a long time inkscape user but never had the time or initiative to register on the forum until now, sorry about that hehe but anyways, right now im in college studying graphic design and well im pretty sure that many of you already know that the majority of graphic designers only use adobe's programs for their jobs but for me thats not the case, well at least on the vector area i think inkscape is the best thing ever so easy and powerful to use but theres one issue that has been bothering me since always, i dont know about you guys but inkscape interface icons doesnt look professional at i guess is a preference thing, but for me they dont look serious and but thats just me so i said, why not create my own icons ? so i would love to have some feedback from you and tell me what you think about them i know theres still a lot of work to do but for now thats the progress that i have made so far, ohh and im planning to work on a dark theme for brighter gtk themes so you'll have both options
tell me what do you think ? any suggestions ?

there you have an example

Hey there,

I like the colors you use. Your icons did not get very inventive, but I guess that's good in most cases. I wrote down thoughts about some of them:


Please keep on posting changes, I'm interested where this project will get in the end.

Hey there Johannski!
Thanks for the reply and for the your feedback i really aprecciate it.
Yea thats the idea to make it simple but intuitive, but of course theres still a lot of work to do, im also planning the redesign of some of the icons for example the pointer, actually i tought the same, its way to round, the pen i guess it can be confused with the pencil so im redisign in it for sure!, the brush i will try a different shape, about the rubber well is like its already worn out from the flat corner but sure i look in to it and work on something different, about the dropper actually i fort to fill it but yes the new icon will be filled now about the readability i know it doesnt look good, actually thats an issue from the gtk theme im using not the actual icons, for that i will need to see on the gtk archive and try to fix it but to be honest im not that good with gtk but i'll try when i get done with the black and white icon set

Again thank you so much, i'll try to post an update soon, the thing is that homework is killing me right now and i havent had enough time to continue but dont worry, you will be sporting new icons for your inkscape soon

Nice to hear that you are planning for redesigning the icon. Actually it is very much important to set icon just because of safety and security purpose.
