Today I mostly finished the 256x256 versions of the mime-types, and already started with the 128x128... only 161 to go meaning that today I made (scaled) about 80 icons, a complete record for me.

I usually try to make constructive critics to your work, but this time I can't think of any. They are just right! Is the central icon for object .o files? I think your abstraction is perfect!
Just in case I haven't said anything for a while...you do incredible work. Beautiful and intense.

Very nice work. There are two things I wanted to mention though:
1. The flame around the disc has a strange color in my eyes, the color red is too dark, like blood. I think it would look more like fire if the red was brighter, and some orange/yellow color would be used.
2. There are two applications, KMag and KMouseTool which are installed by default with Kubuntu (I’m not sure if they’re included with KDE itself). It seems the icons of these two applications haven’t gotten the Oxygen treatment yet, so they look quite out of place when you see them in the menu. Hopefully you could fix them?
@Alexander van Loon to 1 well the red is the red of power and also the red of K3B, i kinda like it like that I agree its a bit of a statement but sometimes I think its nice to be a bit edgy.
to 2 only one of me and 1500 icons to do :) kmousetoll not sure its a kde thing. kmag sure need a new icon yes.
@all thank you so much for the kind words

1500 more? Whoa, I’d instantly be craving for vacation if I’d have so much work to do. But 1500 is hard to imagine, the iconset already looks very complete, which icons still need work or are missing?
@Alexander, well the lists are available in playground oxygen.... but on a nutshell 500 for OpenOffice + 400 koffice+ I still how around 100 to scribus+..... many many more its all sorts of software. and obviously oxygen is needing a refresh to the ones that exist now, the best software deserves the best artwork.

I’m not sure whether this is the right place for this, but may I request a mimetype icon for Lilypond? It’s a music sheet engraving program very similar to LaTeX (www.lilypond.org).
Hello again, so I believe I am 90% done with the base style direction and main UI components for O², and am currently struggling with my not so bright idea of dinamic QML colour pallets. Still overall I'm happy with the general visual direction of the UI style, it's IMO clearly derivative of Oxygen but today. Now having done 90% of the design and doing the serious work I know that the solemn work that will take far far more time is upon me and us.. So in the next week's I will be mostly focussing on the qml implementation that as already started and implementing a kinda Oxygen-demo UI showcase. After that I have to do something even more difficult... That is to find a a icon style that does the same that the UI style above did.. bring to today oxygen of yesterday. And fix any of its issues...
Today the great Marco Committed air into svn. Let me just tell you a bit about air, air is a direct descendant of the air wallpaper, I made the first sketch of it the same day I made the wallpaper, and it tries to make the people that found the Oxygen theme "to black" happy. There is no one fits all design, and hopefully with air we can make a wider spectrum of people love KDE. ( in the future I think we can still make a couple more themes) Its still we hope coherent, there are a lot of small details that are shared with oxygen both qt theme as plasma theme. That gives it a feeling of belonging as part of the same experience. We introduced a brand new element in plasma theming, a cropped background the is placed on the plasmoid canvas, (you will see this in the future taken to new heights as it opens a fantasist new set of opportunities to designers). Its transparent, people love transparent stuff :) (we did some effort to avoid contrast issues, but with certain wallp
Yeah do you want to help us create O². Most of the design concepts are done, but my C++ QtStyle foomagic is lower than zero ;) so muhhhh heee... do you want to help? Janet extraordinaire yesterday helped a bit and adjusted the old Oxygen painting to do a preliminary implementation of the noise O² needs for its background, but that is only the very beginning of what is needed. Also if you have experience in kirigami/plasma, styling. Designers are welcome as well... If you do...... Just made this https://t.me/OxygenSquared for chatty chatty things.
