subject: gnome iconset software: unknown + the GIMP
This is the best I could have ever made. A full iconset for gnome desktops [windows or mac users won't be able to install it]. I also included a script which lets you modify the colours and the aspect of many icons, like folders ones, apps, buttons, etc.
This is not a complete artwork made from me. It's a little artwork made by me, and the rest is a collectwork.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Download the .zip file and extract if into your desktop. Then drag&drop the .tar.gz file into the Themes window to install the iconset. Further instructions [related to the script modifications] included within the .zip and the tar.gz file.
WARNING: The iconset is 70+MB weight.

I want to use this icon set but I cannot customize it the way it is described. Because the needful script file is missing in the pack. When I type in the terminal: sudo rm ~/.icons/hydroxygen/icon-theme.cache
it says there's no such file. Maybe the problem is with the version of Ubuntu I'm using (12.04)? Please help!
This icon set as a license problem, please fix it. The original icon set this icon set "steals" its icons is "oxygen" an LGPL icon set, GPL is a more restrictive licence so you can not use it. Secondly you seam to imply that you did this icons, were it is not true, this icons were mostly made by Nuno Pinheiro, David Vignoni, and Everado Coelho (crystal), yeat you seam to take credit for our work....plase make it clear that this is derevative work from other people and fix the licensing issue... BTW I'm not sure all of the icon set's you used here are compatible licensing wise, please verify that.
All icons that worked with GNOME 2 work with GNOME 3. Ubuntu 11.10 makes it a little complicated.
You need to download "GNOME Tweak Tool" (sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool). It'll show up in your applications as "Advanced Settings". Go to the "theme" tab and change the icons from there.
sudo rm ~/.icons/hydroxygen/icon-theme.cache

Today I updated my test machine from Ubuntu 11.04 (bases on Gnome2.6) to Ubuntu 11.10 beta (bases on Gnome3.0) and the iconset doesn't work properly.
Please update the iconset for Gnome3.
