Description: My attempt at making a tango theme for XFE. I used http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/MY_XFE_ICONS?content=49889&PHPSESSID=c69d699959eaaf56f3c0b2e28574587b as a template. I kept the makefiles intact, so it should work on versions below 0.88 , although I made it in version 0.99. Lots of the mime types (the icons for specific files, ie; a musical note for an mp3, a cabinet for .zip ,etc) are still pretty dull and don't go too well with the theme, as I only modified the worst ones. If you want to change/add some icons, you can get some good ones here: http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Gallery
This theme doesn't look that great in big icon mode, as most of the images are 16x16 pixels. I suggest that you use small icon mode or list mode.
Installation Extract the zip file to /usr/share/xfe/icons/hashed-tango-theme/ , run XFE, goto Edit > Preferences , click on the Themes tab and change the icon path to /usr/share/xfe/icons/hashed-tango-theme/ . When you click accept you should be told to restart XFE. Do as it says and the next time the program runs the new icons will be used.
This theme is more than half-done. There are only 25 missing icons out of 337, which means its 93 percent done.
I just copied over the missing icons from the XFE theme, but if there's someone out there with some time on their hands, here's the list of missing icons:

Good work. Please add at least the very necessary icons, so that xfe won't complain about missing icons anymore. Thanks. You had a very good idea.
