Crystal SVG sources from KDE CVS
These are the Crystal SVG vector sources from KDE CVS.
LOCATION
The "FILES" file gives information about the location they come from.
Most come from: tdelibs/pics/crystalsvg You can visit this cvs directory using webcvs:
http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/tdelibs/pics/crystalsvg
Due to the naming the SVGs are at the end of the list.
They are in the form of .svgz, which can be renamed to svg.gz and opened with gzip -d *.svg.gz
Application icons may also be found with the application sources: /<kde_app_suite>/<kde_app_name>/pics e.g. /tdebase/konqueror/pics or /tdeedu/kmplot/pics
The package_svg_files script collected the sources automatically.
THE ART OF MAKING ICONS
If you want to make Crystal Icons, take a look at the Icon Guide. Here you will find information on icon making, submitting icons to kde, technical problems with svg icons, references, software and much more.
http://kde.ground.cz/tiki-index.php?page=Icon+Guide
The smaller icons are hand-fixed after they are exported to pixels. Running the sources directly on your system will probably give poorer results than using the png version of the Crystal SVG set.
The most up to date info for kde artists can be found at the wiki:
http://kde.ground.cz/tiki-index.php?page=KDE+Artists
MISSING SOURCES
Most of the icons are made by Everaldo, initiator and visionairy of the set, while Torsten is highly productive too. Besides Everaldo and Torsten, other artists added icons to the Crystal icon set. For whatever reason, some of these sources are missing. If you ever made a Crystal SVG icon, and see the source is not in this archive, please send the vector source to: icons --at-- kde --dot-- org
If you want feedback on an icon you made: kde-artists --at-- kde --dot-- org
And of course, Everaldo too is interested in your Crystal icons:
"Everaldo" <everaldo --at--everaldo --dot-- com>
Suse has published some Crystal Icons raw material. See the Icon Guide for more information about this. http://kde.ground.cz/tiki-index.php?page=Icon+Guide
SOFTWARE
Many SVGs made with Illustrator will not open in Sodipodi. Karbon14 (KOffice-1.3) will open these SVG files made with AI. Sometimes it takes a while and sometimes it doesn't
get the gradients correct. However, if you then save the file from Karbon14, it will open in Sodipodi. You may also try Sketch, renamed to Skencil.
