Ooh, it really reminds me of newaita reborn which is one of my favorite icon themes. I’m glad they’re making it a little less minimal

Seems kinda inconsistent. I’m seeing thin lines, thicc lines, flat, 3d, colored and monochrome all together

NeoNachtwaechter,

filled areas and outlined, simple and chaotic… :-)

The icons don’t all speak the same language, true. Some are way more elaborate and detailed than others, which just makes them look off.

Maybe the library could be a single book instead of an entire bookshelf, for example?

There's another icon called "folder-book"

Ah, didn’t see that one at first. Even that icon is still too different from the others though, using thinner lines and no fill. Hm

Jesus, it’s so inconsistent. I suppose that may be beneficial when looking at all of your folders at a bird’s eye view but my knee jerk reaction isn’t the most positive.

Looks good to me

Finally designers are realizing it’s not 2013 anymore and nobody liked the Win8 designed-in-powerpoint style.

SimonSaysStuff, (edited ) to linux in New Plasma 6 Default Icon Theme Looks

These are definitely an improvement over the current icons but while some of the design rules are evident, i think a bit of refining is in order.

The games and download folders both need a complete redesign as the ignore the design rules that the other folders use, and why are the symbols on each folder white except for the Mac folder?

That looks… really inconsistent

  • Why is the mac icon black while the rest aren’t?
  • Why are the games/downloads icons offset while the rest aren’t?
  • Why are some icons really minimalistic and some really detailed?
  • Why do the colored folders have a line while the rest don’t?
  • Why are java/android/deb/blender colored while the rest aren’t?
  • And why is the black folder blue lol

IIRC they refined the Breeze icons over a LONG period of time to get them to the current state - I'm sure the same will be true here.

This feels like a step back from what we currently have.

Still garbage. Why is it so hard for the KDE guys to actually design something simple that makes sense? Starting with proportions and spacing between elements that they seem to be unaware of?

The folder “Notes” and the folder “Library” literally could be anything. There’s no way you show that to any user and they guess the name correct.

And this is the problem I have with all of the icons used in menu’s throughout KDE. I don’t know what the hell they are supposed to be! Even more so as the eyesight gets worse with age.

This is why I don’t use KDE.

You can change icon theme in kde.

smileyhead, to linux in New Plasma 6 Default Icon Theme Looks

I liked old look more. Would prefer to add even more preinstalled icons instead.

imgel, to linux in New Plasma 6 Default Icon Theme Looks

Great criticism overall. Yes, it’ll be improved.

qaz, (edited ) to linux in New Plasma 6 Default Icon Theme Looks

I actually quite like the current breeze style with the sharper edges, it sets it apart from other designs.

They are... certainly icons. I can't get any more excited than that I'm afraid
