Glossy_Project
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
The build script depends on 'convert', which is part of ImageMagick.
I created this set because there are no iconsets for KDE to my liking. I hope everyone enjoys this set and I give all credit to the great artists who made most of these icons.
To install this set:
1. download the zip file
2. extraxt the zip file
3. cd into the Glossy_Crystal folder
4. open a terminal there
5. run ./buildset
6. get a beer
7. Install the icon theme in KDE Control Panel
8. Enjoy
Changed download link to Deviantart page.
Updated:
Added Baghira sidebar icons
Added choice of Trash icons...before building set go to the filesystems folder, rename trashcan_empty to trashcan_empty1, rename trashcan_full to trashcan_full1, pick the Trashcan set you like and remove the number from the name then run ./buildset

i wonder why you didn't made nice opera icon...
I cant build these iconsets. Everytime when i try run Nico, Ekisho, Glossy icon sets i get error on line 147. ./buildset: line 147: 25748 convert "$icon" -resize $size ../../$size/$dir/"$icon" convert: missing an image filename `../../96x96/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../72x72/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../64x64/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../48x48/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../32x32/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../22x22/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. convert: missing an image filename `../../16x16/filesystems/folder_sites.png'. and these lines comes almoust every icon what package haves. Mandriva 2007 spring and other buildsets dont have problems.
Sorry to hear that you're having problems. It's the same buildset script used in several icon themes. The only thing that I can figure is the download must have got corrupted. try dowmloading from the mirror instead.
I have now downloaded this again two times, once from mirror and once from primary download and transfer goes always right but i get same errors everytime. Now i checked those files where i get errors and those size is 0 bytes so there is problem on those packages. Like this theme and apps/package_applications.png Can you check is your upload right?
Just downloaded, built all four sets...no problems. Wish I could help but nobody else is having this problem. It has to be on your end...sorry.
Hi, I have the same problem here :)!
...and some icons are missed, such as folder icons! :(
I am sorry to hear this...the problem is that I'm no coding guru. Please check the pngs when you unzip them...if all of the pngs are there maybe I can figure out if it's a buildscript problem. Also, I was wondering what Linux Distro you are using? I will upload the files again, but everything works ok when I download them. I download the files with Firefox...it is possible that the browser you use can corrupt the download. I have seen that happen many times. Hope we can figure this out...all I can do is try. Please try and download at least one of the sets with a different browser...thanks.
I don't get out much, and my OSX use time is basically nill, but that's the best OSX gui clone I've seen! To reproduce in full? + KDE 3.x (Baghira limitation) + KXDocker with Tempered Glass background ported from ObjectDock + Beryl Emerald - port of Susumu's Eternal. It's on Beryl's site under themes, called "Eternal Fedora". Works good with Ubuntu Human color scheme. + Baghira. Use Gimp to turn the kicker background included in the Baghira source upside down. The sidebar looks better if you google baghira and find the baghira tutorial. The Baghira Starter is my little Fedora mod and the Spotlight icon is Kerry Beagle. What "little Fedora mod"? Thanks, DrCR
I will upload my mods here :-) If anybody wants them...feel free to use them...cheers

Awesome set of icons, congrats really. I will be using them. Also, I loved your bottom kicker, it has three dimensional feeling to it. Where did you get it? Thanks.
Great work! By the way, what is the window decoration used in the screenshots?
Beryl Emerald...my port of Susumu's Eternal. It's on Beryl's site under themes...it's called Eternal Fedora, works good with Ubuntu Human color scheme.
You have really good graphic taste! I suppose you like Mac OS X look and feel, so ... why don't you convert all you icons sets for Mac users? I'm both a Kubuntu and a Mac user, and having coherence between these two platforms would be great!!! I can tell your icon sets are even better then the original by Apple, and I would be glad to publish and promote your work on my blog! You can find me at mad4mac.altervista.org Let me know your opinion Great Job!
Thanks for the comment. I only created a small number of these icons and I'm proud of my creations. The truth is that most of the icons in these sets are by Everaldo, Louie Mantia, Sergio Ruiz, Mike Moschini, and Jonas Rask who graciosly granted me permission to edit and assemble them into these KDE icon themes. I only claim to be the editor and contributing artist. If you would like to find something very similar for Mac please look here: http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/ Aquasoft is where I and many others get our inspiration.
Instead of releasing a version with 3 updated icons every day, how about releasing a serious update weekly?
Sorry...I guess I just get too excited sometimes. I want to give back to the KDE and Linux community...where else could you get such a wonderful OS for free?
This is a nice theme but could you add a Adept Manager icon Thanks K
Perhaps...if you could show me an example, the proper icon name and if it goes in the /apps folder?
hi I like your upper kicker bar... do you use baghira? furthermore what about your...finder? I use baghira, too, but my upper kicker and finder (konqueror) look different from you http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/1397/screendx9.jpg
Yes it is Baghira...the trick is to use Gimp to turn the kicker background included in the Baghira source upside down. The sidebar looks better if you google baghira and find the baghira tutorial. The Baghira Starter is my little Fedora mod and the Spotlight icon is Kerry Beagle.
Of Ekisho, Aqua, and this, I like Glossy the best. Good job!
Quote:I like the bar at the bottom. What is that and is like the OSX bar when you hover over it has parabolic zoom?
Can we download it somewhere...
That's looking class. A java 3d desktop. google for it.
