Description: Oxyfolders - Oxygen Extra Icon Folders
[quote]Oxyfolders is just a little extra to complement the Oxygen Icon Theme, giving more personalization to the folders in your desktop.
This pack contains PNG 256x256 and looks nice from 48x48 to 256x256 (less than 32x32 don't), but you can find some minor graphic errors.
All artwork here is original from the Oxygen Icon Theme*, developed by The Oxygen Team and licensed over LGPL, and this pack is just a mixture of that work under the same license. You can found the Oxygen Homepage here:
http://www.oxygen-icons.org/
Oxyfolders 0.2 is made from oxygen-icons-4.3.98 (KDE SC 4.4 RC3) and you can found here:
http://kde.org/info/4.3.98.php
*Icons not belonging to Oxygen Icon Theme are extracted from places like Wikimedia Commons and used as LGPL. You can found here:

And for whatever about Oxyfolders you can contact me posting here, by pm or mail.[/quote]
*Now Karmic Koala users can find a deb installer thanks to jmdsdf!.Last changelog:
Oxyfolders 0.2 - From now Oxyfolders are based only in PNG 256x256, straight to final user and no more buggy SVG, unnecesary in most cases.
Terrific icons. Any idea on how to correct the mimetypes 001010101 effect in the "Dolphin" preview post > KDE 4.5.1? I'm not expecting the artist to create the solution. Just figured this was one of the best places to search for an answer.
Hi!
This is not an icon theme, so don't need installation. Just save and uncompress the pack in a folder (/home/images/ by ex.) and setup manually one by one (right click on the desired folder > properities > click on icon > other icons > icons folder).
Regarz!
hi,
do you plan to push them upstream? would be really cool to have these icons in svgs in oxygens. moreover you have talent. do you work together with the oxygen developers?
best regrads!
Hi,
For me there's no problem to make just some of these icons in svg (all from svg sources), and if Oxygen Team wants, use it in the official package, but I'm afraid the problem with this stuff is not only that.
The question with these icons are not the svg. SVG or PNG at 256x256 are more than enough for the bigger sizes, and even until 48x48 (on the edge 32x32). The question are the smallest icon sizes, all in PNG, because they need to be different redrawned, from 16x16, 22x22, 32x32 48x48... and I can't do that :(is a job for a graphic designer, and I'm not). For that reason, even with the svg these icons would be incomplete.
The best way to include some of this artwork in the official packages is to send a popular request to the Oxygen Team. You're editor, we can meke something about that? Anyway, I'm disposed to help to improve in what I can.
Regards.
Hi! Nice icons. Its a pity there are only 256x256 in size, because on Dolphin they are scaled (48x48 in my setup) and don't look very well. :S
However, thank for sharing. Hope to see SVGs soon :)
Ok, I've added some new icons, included e-books folder (but still there's no good graphics for everything, and this could be a good example). Anyway, I hope you like it :)
No but you can play with colorize or some other colors settings in Gimp to transform the blue tint into another color ;)
I've done that once for the Crystal icon pack
I don't have any problem to color the folders, it's easy, but, if official theme is only in blue... for what?
If you want to make a mod for yourself, think, is a big work (not only this few folders!).
well, there is already some colored folders (red, green, purple...) and I was just speaking about adding some more colors (black, dark grey, pink...) for the folder icon (and not for all the icons)
but no problem, I sure can do it myself if I want :)
Ok, I understood that you want different colors for all folders, included folders with emblems (big work!).
To include different colors for folders is no problem. I'll add some in next upload ;)

Hello For those who want more of these icons I created "folder emblems" which allows you to generate them. see http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=133556 ++

I permitted myself to use some of your icons in my deb-package entitled "Oxygen Icons for Unix System Folders" http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Oxygen+Icons+for+Unix+System+Folders?content=132442 Try it.
No problem, these are not my icons ;)
Thanks to sharing this bunch of useful icons. Beware you, rotten Apple!!
the download link is broken!
Hi, seems to have been a problem in MediaFire, but all files are yet available ;)
How do I install & uninstall these icons?

Thanks, I hope too see the SVGs soon, but with some icons it's a problem :(
Please add "Linux folder"
Give me some days and I'll made. PD: Sorry for not answer before.
I'd like to have an e-books folder, I still wonder why Oxygen team didn't make it
Like I writed in the description, Oxygen Icons still are not complete; they work fine, but slowly. I hope a final package soon. Meanwhile...
Ok, I've added some new icons, included e-books folder (but still there's no good graphics for everything, and this could be a good example). Anyway, I hope you like it :)
Great, thanks a lot
please add additional colors/tint for your folders :) (and for the original [no emblems or additional graphism) folder) :)
That I know, Oxygen icons are only in blue. There's some packages in other colors?
