Greetings,

I have been working on a utility called Ikona. Ikona is an application
with a simple goal - to be a companion to a full fledged editor in
helping the user design icons. It shows the icons in just about any
way you want them shown - against a wallpaper, solid background,
transparent background on a wallpaper, over the KDE HIG, small, big,
you name it. It also bundles icon templates with sizes and pixel grids
preconfigured to allow designers to start working on an icon
immediately without having to set up a canvas. There is also
functionality for displaying the Breeze color palette and allowing
easy access to copy its color codes.

Before anyone asks, no, this does not attempt to do the same thing as
Cuttlefish. Cuttlefish lists the active icon theme, while Ikona
displays an icon while it is being worked on by a designer, and
provides facilities to help icon designers.

Currently, the team is just me, myself, and I. Considering the
simplicity of the application, that's all I really see it needing for
the near future. You can only display an icon so many different ways.

The project is currently hosted on GitHub, but does not make use of
any Github-specific features, allowing a change to an open source
service to be as simple as changing the remote URL and pushing. If it
needs to be changed before hopping onto KDE infrastructure, I could
simply just throw it onto Gitlab's Gitlab instance.

That being said, I'm looking for someone to sponsor Ikona for
incubation. Anyone would be much appreciated.
