Hi!
I made a icon replacement of Pixelitor. I hope you like it and you consider add it to this nice software.
I made it based upon Gimp symbolic icons and Papirus icon theme.
I made also a new app icon and splash screen.

So, you can switch from this:

Captura de pantalla_2020-04-03_11-22-21

To this:

Captura de pantalla_2020-04-03_11-25-57

pixelitor icon proposal:
pixelitor_icon48

pixelitor splash proposal:
splash

The files:
images.zip

The pixelitor jar with the updated icons, ready to test:

Pixelitor-4.2.3.jar.zip

I think it looks very elegant and pro. And if you consider to add the option to using environment widgets it would looks awesome.

P.D.: if you need for example a light icon version, please, contact me. ;)

Hi!

Thank you, these icons look very interesting! I still have to think about them, but they certainly look more elegant and pro than the old ones.
I assume that you created them in a vector graphics format, could you also send them as SVG files?
(I would like to have the ability to change them in the future even if I can't reach you...)

There is no need to send a jar file, I can very easily regenerate it.

A light version could be also interesting, because I was thinking about adding a dark theme to Pixelitor. But if the color is the only change, then it is not necessary to create a new icon, the colors can be changed in the code when loading the icons.

Ps. I will also reply to the other issues opened by you in a few hours.

Hi @lbalazscs !

The fist version was made only using raster images.
I made a new version using Gimp and Inkscape symbolic SVG icons and rendering them to generate the png and gif ones. I modified and adjust some of them to obtain a consistent look.

As you mentioned, now it is possible you to make light or even more darken versions.

The Papirus icon team made a Pixelitor icon and included it in its theme too. I used it to made the new png icons and spash.

Here all the files.

pixelitor-icons_v20200403.zip

And here the result:

I hope you like.
Cheers!
