Scribus Icons Contest 2011

Many of you have probably noticed that the Scribus' icons set could need some care!

If you are skilled in icons design and want to do a substantial contribution to the Scribus project, you're kindly invited to get your hands dirty and create a new icon theme.

We ask you to submit a proposal with 10 to 30 icons in one single PNG file in the "Development > UI" board in the Scribus forums.
You will probably want to add a description of your work.

The deadline for submitting your proposal is October 31 2011.

Members of the Scribus team and of the Scribus UI group will then choose one proposal and ask its author to work on the full set.

Here some general considerations:

  • The new icons will be for Scribus 1.5svn.
  • You can get all the current icons by checking out the Scribus sources

from our subversion repository and going to the scribus/resources/icons/ directory.

  • You should create icons in different states (on, off, hovered) and at

different sizes (16, 22, 32 pixel)

  • In the spirit of free software, we also welcome designers who are

open to a cooperation with other participants of the contest and achieve a full set of icons for Scribus.

For questions and general comments, please ask in the Scribus mailing list or in this post in the Scribus forums.
