Hi all,
I've been aware of the famfamfam icons for awhile now but the fugue icons look pretty good and equally as comprehensive as the former. Gonna ruminate on this for a bit. Thanks to Jacob for the find and Alison for the reiteration. :-) Jacob, from what I know scalable icons would be nice but any time I've tried to rescale a logo or icon from a vector it still needs some tweaking post-rasterization. There is some application logic in PS that still appears to be missing when scaling down a logo; issues such as lack of embellishment for stroke or shading when scaled down to a particular size. I wish it were that easy but in the meantime I'd be happy with a bitmapped library for the time being. Thanks!

A while back I also ran across this one (trying to remember if Erin pointed me to it...): http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library And on 1/23 Jacob pointed us to the Fugue library, which also looks interesting: http://www.pinvoke.com/icon/image/fugue_all.png Cheers, Allison On Jan 27, 2009, at 1:20 PM, Jacob Farber wrote: It has been a point of discussion here to developer a scalable icon library for FSS, but as of right now we dont have anything other than a feature wishlist....

Can anyone point me in the right direction wrt this? What is everyone else currently using as their icon library? If one doesn't exist, would everyone be agreeable to having one established? If wii could have some sort of consensus on this I'd be more than happy to implement. Thanks!
