************************************************

Please consider a small donation (1$ goes a long way) via PayPal to "alecive87@gmail.com"

************************************************

Before asking, if you have any problem, run at least once the customization script, and TAKE A LOOK AT THE README FILE!!!

************************************************

QUICK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS -> You can choose between:
  • PPA modality:

    1. Type in a terminal window:

      1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alecive/antigone

      2. sudo apt-get update

      3. sudo apt-get install awoken-icon-theme

      4. awoken-icon-theme-customization

    2. Follow Instructions

    • WARNING: with ppa subscription you can always get the newest version on your machine. But to see the improvements, you have to configure (or re-configure) at least once the iconset either for clear version, or dark version, or even a colored one.

  • Download the iconset:

    1. EDIT: for now, deviantArt doesn't let me upload the iconset due to its restrictions. So, from now on, the icon set will be available from this link (on my dropbox account) -> [link]

    2. Extract the archive, enter in the newly-created directory called AwOken-2.5, and extract these archives as well

    3. Move the folders called AwOken, AwOkenDark, and AwOkenWhite in your .icons folder

    4. Type in a terminal window:

      1. cd .icons

      2. sudo cp -p AwOken/awoken-icon-theme-customization /usr/bin

      3. sudo cp -p AwOken/awoken-icon-theme-customization-clear /usr/bin

      4. sudo cp -p AwOkenDark/awoken-icon-theme-customization-dark /usr/bin

      5. sudo cp -p AwOkenWhite/awoken-icon-theme-customization-white /usr/bin

      6. awoken-icon-theme-customization

    5. Follow Instructions

RECOMMENDED PACKAGES

To exploit full power of customization script, you have to install zenity (recommended, used to see the GUI) and imagemagick (mandatory, used to color icons). If you use Ubuntu, they're in repositories, so you have only to install them from Software Center.

************************************************

QUICK CUSTOMIZATION INSTRUCTIONS

If you have follow instructions above, you have only to type in a terminal window:

awoken-icon-theme-customization

And follow instructions provided!

************************************************

CHANGELOG FOR 2.5 VERSION

Critique by ~mintystark Sep 8, 2012, 7:07:51 PM
While I believe that this icon set is the best there is for Linux I do believe it can be improved a bit. My main critique would be that I think the icons are a bit blurry when they are under 32px. This might be by design as it might offer better support when scaling the images, but I guess I am a little picky and prefer sharper icons. For this reason I have replaced the status icons with Faenza as they are a bit sharper and come off a bit cleaner. I would be glad to share a screen shot if requested.

Thanks

I did't even read after the second line. Because I did understand that you didn't read anything about the changelog, the how-to pdf, or the journal post.

THE MONOCHROME VERSION IS AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SCRIPT. I didn't remove any (crucial) functionality, but instead I increased them dramatically and I at the same time accomodated the desire of many. The desire of a minimal, stylish, colored iconset.

I'm (partially) flattered about your appreciation regarding the iconset. But your disdain for my efforts, for the thousands of hours that I wasted upon a completely-free project, make me feel very angry, make me feel that probably is better to throw everything away.

Do you think that I'm earning anything from this? Despite the near million of total downloads, I received a total amount of 200€ in donation throughout three years. For something like 3000 hours of work (and growing). Is this even fair?

The reason for which I'm doing this is because I believe in the project, I feel that I have something to share, I know that my work will improve the community. And, usually, users are happy to use a complete, uniform iconset that I give them completely for free and without any return. I'm not even a designer, I do robotics, this work doesn't even serve for my cv.
What do I get instead? Nothing but disdain and useless complains from you. And why? Because of your manifest ignorance about my work. How do you dare?
From now on, I strongly advise you, before posting something like this, to be informed, to be aware what you're talking about, to ask and not to claim, to be humble and not arrogant. Behind projects there are people, not robots. We have feelings, we have a life, and we are exactly like you.

Superb Icon set and a fantastic update!

One question, how can I change the trash icon? There doesn't seem to be an option in the customization script..

If I could fav this again I would!

Thanks!

Unfortunately, in order to simplify the script and let it more usable (Expecially for a new user) I removed the option to customize the trash (and a couple of other). The only way to change it is to use the no-color option, or to change it manually! Icons are still there, so it's only a matter of replacing a couple of them. :)
