Clarity Vector Icon theme for GTK
Licensed under GNU GPL Version 3 license <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html>
Copyright (c) 2010-2012 Jakub Jankiewicz http://jcubic.pl
This theme is based on AwOken and Token, lots of shapes and basic color pallete was
taken from these icons. Few icons was taken from Raphael <http://raphaeljs.com/>.
I use some shapes from OpenClipart <http://www.openclipart.org>, Wikipedia, Humanity and
AnyColorYouLike Themes. The rest of icons I design myself by simplifying existed icons
or logos. I use two fonts: Impact and Cheboygan.
Icons are mostly monoshape, but some icons have additional elements. There are seven
predefined color themes (in five colors) but you can also crete your own.
Available theme:
violaceus - violet/pink gradient
lux_violaceus - glossy variant
canus - grey gradient (default)
dark_canus - dark grey gradient
caeruleus - blue gradient
lux_caeruleus - glossy variant
viridis - green gradient
luteus - orage gradient

FURTHER CUSTOMIZATION
Every icon is made from a single shape and a template so it's easy to customize.
You can create custom theme by creating new file src/template_<your_name>.svg
see default templates to see how they are build. Basicly all templates must have
{{PATH}} and {{TITLE}} marks which will be replaced by data from the "source"
of an icon. You can create theme in Inkscape but after saving you must put {{PATH}}
marker in d atrribute of the shape (I don't tested but it sould work). You
can also edit template by hand see SVG Specification <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/>
to see what transformations and effects you can add.
If you done editing your custom template double click change-theme and select
<your_name> to create your custom icons.
If you want to use make you must run ./configure first
