Ricebowl 0.1.99 received lots of positive feedback

Ricebowl released 0.1.99, the last or second last development preview release before 0.2.0, which is scheduled some time around 2006 new year.

Ricebowl is by far not the best icon set on KDE-look.org however it received lots of positive positive feedback so that it is currently the highest rated icon set on KDE-look.org.

  1. I like this icon theme a lot. Thought it does seem to lack consistency of style with regards to the mime icons. There appear to be three styles…

    flat…
    doc, ttf, font, pdf, svg

    crystal…
    aac, mov, mp3, rm

    bitmap…
    psd, xcf

    By far I like the flat mime icons. The others look out of place, and are not nearly as nice.

    Keep up the great work, I will be looking forward to seeing this theme progress.

    Thanks.

  2. Thank you for your comment.

    I made the mimetypes in three different styles because I want to make them look different. For those crystal ones, they are supposed to be some kind of multimedia files. So they should be colorful. For bitmap, they are bitmap image files. And the other “flat” ones are those that fall out of the others. ttf, font files are not colorful in nature. So they are flat. pdf and svg can be different according to its content. So I made them colorful, yet flat.
