Indeed. This icon theme is beautiful, and the icons are easy to 
understand.

I saw that there is text in some icons ("source", "hi...", "metafont"). 
This causes problems when translating KDE. The file endings like cpp are 
a special case, because they are the same in all languages, but 
application names like "kget" might also be translated. The name "ASCII" 
is the same in most languages, but I would still recommend to use a 
symbol instead because most people don't know what it means, whereas 
everyone would understand a picture of a text file.

I was really impressed by the number of icons you have made. I found only 
very few coloured icons after applying your theme. And the icons you have 
made for KDE Accessibility applications are actually far more beautiful 
than our original ones...
