Thanks for adding me to the discussion @Christian Lenz, and hello into the
void!
Do we have already considered solutions like Nucleo or Streamline, Icons8,
Fluent
is better than to have 10 designer for the same
thing. https://www.raiken.studio/

As for the choice of drawing software, this will likely be decided by whoever
steps up to do the first batch of 50-60 icons.
That said, the choice of tool is primarily a question of which crowd to attract.
Using Inkscape will be attractive to programmers (most of the people on this
list), and

Hello Eirik,
since Saturday I was talking my son into redrawing some icons. Today he managed
to convert two simple ones with InkScape. Let's try the classical PR review
process on his icons: https

of converting icons to SVG
Was just looking around and saw this link [1]. Seems to favor Inkscape but
there may also be ways to leverage gimp (another popular graphics tool - not
specifically vector based but has some abilities to export with a little work).

Hi Jaroslav et al,
The JIRA ticket is here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2617
In the comments, you'll see attached the .ai files for the icons I redrew as
SVG. The following NB modules are covered:

Hi,

With my PMC head on I'm not happy with that approach as it won't scale
- when do we endorce a crowdfund efford, what happens
In my opinion, the ideal way to do this would be to crowdfund the effort and
have new icons be drawn by a single paid, professional icon designer. I'd be
interested in hearing your thoughts on this.
In my experience, drawing an icon takes 30 minutes on average [1], after
getting up to speed.

I'm a great fan of Inkscape, although it should be noted that on
certain systems NetBeans will crash it! :-) Can't run both together
here.
Best wishes,

I've tried both Inkscape and Affinity - both are great pieces of software,
but not ideal for this job, as the artboard functionality of AI is great to
be able to look at all icons in a NB module at a time to ensure
consistent design (and tracing is much easier/intuitive in AI).
TBH, there is far
