Having thought about what I originally said, I was only thinking of the stock icons that are displayed through GTK+. It would be possible to write an engine that displayed these in a different way (i.e. lower the contrast), but it wouldn't be possible to affect how Nautilus displays icons. I think the best thing to do here is to write a script to convert the current gnome-icon-theme to a low contrast version. I had a look at the current low contrast icon theme, and it is an amazing mismatch of old and obscure icons, not to mention the numerous missing icons as well. I assume that a relatively simple shell script using ImageMagick could convert most of the gnome-icon-theme to a low contrast version. Does anyone know what the steps are in creating a low contrast version of an icon (including precise parameters)? -Thomas _______________________________________________ gnome-themes-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-themes-list
