A tangoish icon theme for KDE 4! I was waiting for someone else to release one and just got sick of waiting!

I like the simplicity and how easy it is to identify various actions. Apparently 'Tango' is more of a way of organizing things, not the actual style of icons, so this theme is 'tangoish'. I think it works beautifully with the default Oxygen style of KDE 4.

I've included a list of things which are missing/inadequate. I appreciate any suggestions for changes or what apps/icons you want added!

Licensing: As I was looking to make a complete iconset for KDE 4, the tango-icon-theme by itself didn't cut it and I had to borrow from a number of different sets including bctangokde, gnome-icon-theme, and ubuntu's human icon theme (among others). I've included a list in a file called 'licenses' which details the license(s) each icon falls under. Keep this in mind if you plan on adapting this theme or using any of the icons contained within: some are CC BY-SA and some are GPL! Those licenses are not compatible, meaning you can't simply relicense any ol' GPL app/image you find as CC BY-SA, and vice-versa.

Note also that I have so far only created a few of these icons, all the rest were done by talented artists such as jimmac and boskicinek. Even those few were just patched together from others' work. As such, consider this a compilation more than an original work.

Installation: simply unzip the file, then open up system settings > appearance > icons, add and select the theme, and hit 'apply'!

Enjoy!

Thanks so much for creating this! I'm a big fan of the tango-style icons, but I prefer KDE over Gnome for my desktop environment. I used bctangokde under KDE 3.5 but this is the first set that I encounter which really takes care of tango-ifying my KDE4 desktop. Keep up the good work XD
