For now Step needs icons for bodies and forces. I'm currently working on rigid 
bodies (which will be ready in a week or so) and collision detection, so body 
list will be extended (and possibly changed). To ask for icons on kde-artists 
mailing list is a very good idea, I'll do it as soon as required icon list 
will be somehow stable.

However if you have any ideas about icons that currently present/missing in 
Step (look at screenshots on http://edu.kde.org/step/), please share them. It 
will be very helpful since I have almost no ideas about that icons myself.

Thanks for links. I'm trying to read it using my poor knowledge of german 
(several month of studying at university) together with translate.google.com.
