A New Icon Theme for Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.ten

This is a wiki page for the art team and who else to show off different icon designs every bit suggestions for the default icons in Intrepid.

I accept discussed the land of the look of Ubuntu with Mark Shuttleworth, and he suggested using the following procedure.

Utilise the art squad to develop wiki'south displaying unified work towards three areas: 1) Fonts, 2) Icons, and iii) the Theme.

We will list several options on the wiki, forth with guidelines. We volition so hash out the options, narrowing them down to a few choices. These wiki pages will be used

to then testify Shuttleworth the Art Team's work at the next Customs Quango.

• Fonts: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Intrepid_Ibex_Font_-_Art_Team

• Icons: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Intrepid_Ibex_Icons_-_Art_Team

• Theme: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Intrepid/Ubuntu_8.10_Theme_-_Art_Team

Guidelines

As per Mark Shuttleworth'south proffer, you volition create a folder icon showing how yous call up the icons should be redesigned.

one) It has to however be orangish/chocolate-brown.

2) Brand it unique; Mark wants us to retain our identity. Therefore, offset with the current Man binder and work from there.

three) Create the icon as a scalable icon, and brand it available in editable formats.

4) Try to include a palette and concept art as well.

New Human being Icon Theme

Patrick and I have been working together designing a new icon prepare for Ubuntu. The icons are styled in a tango fashion and the color palette is consistent with the defining Orange and Brown colors of Ubuntu. We accept roughly 30 icons completed. Below is a small teaser.

Subtle Human

I would like to propose a new direction, rather than an actual theme. Here are my ideas:

Go for subtle and let become of the highly-saturated palette. We want to do something modern as the next step of evolution for Ubuntu's aesthetics. In my opinion, the near logical step to do this is to make a more mature palette comprised of subdued colors.

Saturated colors should be simply emphasis colors, and not the dominant colour (as with the current Man icon theme).

If we only go with the same colors and the aforementioned outline style, we volition be merely making an iteration of the current theme'due south idea. We desire to go to the next step forward, non sideways.

Hither is my concept (sample icon + a sample minimal color palette):

• I recall nosotros should look to gnome-icon-theme which is based on Tango and licensed under the GPL for many of our icons. They have the nigh complete set of icons. From there we tin make them as our our with a unlike color palette and changing and improving the overall manner of the gnome-icons. (Did this annotate piece of work?) -- Ryan Henningsen 2008-07-29 21:49:52

• I've added three more icons to my mockup set. Experience free to critic my work every bit you see fit, anybody! -- Ryan Henningsen 2008-07-30 21:23:05

• I like it. The one thing I would add is that the trash bin would be nifty if it changed states; empty if there'southward nothing in there, ane-ii pieces of junk for ane-five files, v for vi-x files, seven for 11-20, overflowing xx+.

  • From Patrick's perspective, that would be hard to do at lower icon resolutions. The point of an icon is to quickly and as intuitively as possible convey a meaning. Such as open, edit, delete, etc. That existence said, icons should distinguish themselves from each other and so that y'all tin wait at one and immediately think, "Oh that trash can is empty, or that trash can is full." It may be possible to implement what you said with a more translucent icon, merely every bit is, "Empty" and "Full" are accurate enough depictions of what their meanings are. -- Ryan Henningsen 2008-07-31 xi:05:40

• I really like your work and especially the fact that information technology's based on Tango/Tangerine. Keep upwardly the skilful work. I hope that your theme could replace the current human 1 in 8.ten, specially the folder icons. They volition match my gtk theme - New Wave. -- AntonKerezov 2022-05-06 xviii:52:xiv

• I added a new concept (Subtle Human). I'd really capeesh some honest feedback on this. -- rico-ambiescent 2008-09-07 17:29:36
