Yet Another Monochrome Icon Set For KDE Plasma

up to you, i just think a dolphin on the folder icon would be cute. be it that you monochrome the original one or edit the one you have now and puit a dolphin ot it is up to you.

Like the eos monochrome logo has these lines (they are transperant i think), you can make the dolphin with those on the folder icon. if you know what i mean, so it will still be flat.
worst case just stamp a small dolphin on it xD

I have NO IDEA what I’m doing :joy:, I just did this because I was bored. :winking_face_with_tongue:

Made the “paper” in the folder transparent.

I feel the same way. I’ll go with the one on the left.

Just a tiny dipping of the toe into the waters of Inkscape. I’ll dig deeper over the coming weeks. :vulcan_salute:

Yesterday, I edited the kvantum theme I use with Inkscape. It was an exciting project. I wanted to use the same accent color and font color as in the edited breeze theme. It looks really good. I used the github console color scheme as a basis.

Cool! Kvantum is something I’ve been wanting to mess around with too. I’m planning to tweak my current setup to use the Nord color palette.

I have never worked with kvantum before. Yesterday evening was my first time. Of course, everything could be done more professionally. I had no idea what needed to be done. But I still think it turned out well.

Still in the tinkering phase, so “professional” is kind of optional for now :stuck_out_tongue:

Same here :smiley:

Slightly off-topic.

@swh Today I tried customizing my Kvantum theme. My use case is simpler than yours — I just wanted to change the background color to something bluish.

However, I felt overwhelmed when I opened the .svg file in Inkscape:

Since I already knew the original color and the new one I wanted, I ended up opening the .svg file in Kate and just replaced the color values manually.

Here’s the result:

That looks really good.

I haven’t figured out yet what I need to edit to get the same color effect in the right-click menu as in Dolphin.

Dolphin purple

Menu right-click got the original colors from Gently-Colors.

I don’t quite understand that yet.

What is the name of your kvantum theme?

Silvery-Kvantum

I’ve been using your other icon set for some time now but finally got around to trying these and wow, outstanding. It’s a pretty rare thing to find icon sets with icons for all of the apps I use but man oh man you have nailed it.
I literally have just two icon sets installed from the KDE store and both are yours, they are so good.

Thank you so much! :slightly_smiling_face:
I’ll be pushing a new update soon.

I just finished tweaking my window decorator—it’s now matching nicely with my Kvantum theme. I’m back to using the one I prefer; it’s a bit thinner compared to the current one.

Just published a new update for the icon set!
