-<para
->You have two options relating to icon sizes. First, you can choose from a list of icon sizes. Second, you can tell &kde; to draw all pixels using double sized pixels. The largest icon sizes are especially useful for visually impaired people.</para>
-
-<para
->Which sizes will be offered by the icon size listbox depends on the icon theme you have selected in the icon themes control module. For example, the low colour icon theme only offers the sizes 16 and 32 for desktop icons and 16, 22 and 32 for toolbar icons. The HiColour theme offers icon sizes 16, 32 and 48 as well as sizes from 64 to 128. However, as &kde; can not have all these icon sizes in store, icons using size 64 to 128 will be automatically generated which may result in a loss of quality.</para>

-<para
->If the icon sizes offered by your chosen icon theme are not enough for you, there is still the option <guilabel
->Double-sized pixels</guilabel
->. If this option is selected, all icons will have double sized pixels, &ie; a 2x2 block instead of normal pixels. While this makes it possible to achieve very large icon sizes, the quality is poor: icons will look <quote
->blocky</quote
->, an effect you may remember if you've grown up using a Sinclair ZX Spectrum or similar. If this is an option for you, using the large sizes offered by &kde;'s HiColour icon theme will always result in a much better quality than using the low colour icon theme with double sized pixels.</para
