[Collection] jolla icons

Wow, these are really high quality!! Great work

Marvelous! Thanks for your effort.

@Moth did you think about steampunk style or something like that?

@cemoi71 Tons of rusty steel and golden appliquees? Senseless gears, mechanics and optics, inspired by the work of H.G. Wells and successors? Yay! ;-)

Very nice! ;)

Amazing work. If you have time, more categories please. Thank you already.

Ok, i'll be the dumb one to ask this, but how do we load these fabulous icons onto our phone?

Certainly not a dumb question, since it's not exactly obvious!
I searched and found this thread, where the locations of the icons are listed:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=92073

Stock/native apps icons can be found here:
/usr/share/themes/jolla-ambient/meegotouch/icons/

I found all 3rd party icons here (even though the linked thread suggests only some are here):
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/86x86/apps

Android app icons can be found here:
/var/lib/apkd/

I would recommend backing up these folders before you replace the icons.
Do this by using rsync, preferably, so permissions are preserved. Example:
cd /usr/share/themes/jolla-ambient/meegotouch/
rsync -av icons icons_bak

(First you change directory to where the folder you want to copy is, then you rsync it with the -av parameters specificed.)

Note: Only the first package has filenames that correspond to the actual names of the original icons.
I renamed these to the corresponding icons I wanted to replace.

Thanks, I'll now give it a go.

It would be great if someone could package these up into an app that would allow easy installation & directory backup.

You can find the name of the icon the application uses by its desktop link, which can be found here:
/usr/share/applications/

It's also possible to store all custom icons in a different location, and then change the reference to the icons in the .desktop files (in /usr/share/applications) to this location, if you prefer to do it that way.

Also, to state the obvious, you need developer mode enabled to do any of this.

These are amazing! Is there any chance you could make wire-frame folder icons as well?

Whoa! Way to go dude. Excelente =)

@MikaN Thank you and welcome in my little world of icons... ;-)

Very nice, I like it because it seems compatible with dark-on-light themes; if they pup up once. I can't emphasize how much I am disappointed about the 2.0.1/Taalojärvi release! It's a maintenance relase and they fixed really a lot of things, but polishing DropBox or OneDrive, before working on severe usability issues like changeable font-sizes, or having dark-on-light ambience(s) is ridiculous. Not to mention the officially unusable "dialer" or "email" app. OpenRepos has hundreds of patches of which at least 10 are essential to sensible and consistent usage... omg. Thankfully the community is working as hard as possible on these daily-usage-show-stoppers – as far as it's possible on a closed project utilizing open ones. Thanks for sharing your great results with us! -Mano

Really nice work! Thank you! Which software do you use for creating icons?

Thank you. Most of the work was done with old trusty inkscape, the mighty idraw (ios) and some post-processing with ps.

is there a "theme-ing" app that can change icon sets?

I really wish there is an easy way to switch between themes, as I'm preparing a Harmattn style icon set myself, want an easier way to switch back without connecting to ssh or terminal.

The key of QuasarMX is that the "Play" triangle bottom edge aligns with the line going straight through headphones speakers axis..

You're right. I should rethink it. I'm not really happy, neither with the original nor with my version. Hmm... Thank you for your comment! :-)

Thanks, @Moth, these complement your app icons really nicely! The only thing I'm missing is an icon for my medical folder, maybe featuring a wire-frame version of the Rod of Asclepius? Unfortunately, I have neither the technical nor the artistic skills to create such beautiful icons myself.

@Eds Ok, for your eyez only: Medical ;-)

Offtopic: is there such an (native)application for SailfishOS?

Yes, you can find it @ openrepos but it's VERY beta tbh... ;-)

well, it's not that beta....

@MikeL Well, i can admit that your app is under active development. Keep it up! :)
