I can confirm that these images are GPL. The author released the original under a noncommercial license on one site but released it under the GPL in another. I know this because I uploaded it to Wikipedia and had to research its licensing before doing so (WP doesn't allow noncommercial images on userpages).
when i try to copy the new firefox.png with the old one, it says i don't have permissions, which i don't understand since i'm the owner and the only one using this account. when i click properties and the permissions tab, it says the owner is "root". Can anyone help?
go to the terminal and type sudo nautilus
and i have been using the first one of those icons as an avatar for some sites for a while but i dont remember where i found it. i love the other colors
Never mind. I figured it out. For other noobs...
You'll need to copy the icon you want to use to usr/share/pixmaps. Rename your old firefox icon (firefox.old?). Rename your new icon firefox.png. You'll need to do this as root.
I belive the author of the icon(s) was:
http://www.jairoboudewyn.com/
Side note:
Also, originally packaged with the
Optimized Mozilla Firefox Build for Linux..."Swiftfox"
http://www.getswiftfox.com/
...but then again.. I'm not sure and too lazy to check.
have searched the web for "firefox icons" and found only the preview pic, not the icons, after a long search session, have found it finaly on www.customize.ru.without any detail by the author ;)

Hi, How do I add these icons? I know with other icon *.bz2 file I just import them into the theme manager, but that does work for these. Thanks.
