Description:

t was april 2002 when I first started designing a little 48x48 icon and published it at kde-look.org.
It was an alternative “trashcan" for KDE 2. Since then I’ve continued designing icons and started many themes to increase my skills and improve design quality, these were: "Desktop icons", "Sky", "Lush" and finally "Nuvola".

It tooks me more than a year to reach version 1, the more professional, consistent and complete Nuvola theme ever released, it will turn your KDE in an eyecandy colourful desktop.

If you never tryed Nuvola what are you waiting? give it a try! For the others waiting this release since a long time… download Nuvola 1.0 now!

Have fun and enjoy your desktop!
David Vignoni

That's the message I get when I try to install it.

I've KDE 3.2.1

That's something wrong with the tarball or what?

i had the same prob., the nuvola.tgz is missing index.desktop., you can copy this file from your other downloaded icons to nuvola.tgz just change the name to nuvola (name=nuvola).

extract first the file to copy the index.desktop and run 'ark' and drag the extracted file to it. say name the file nuvola_new.tar.gz

one of you using kde-3.1.x can please contact me! I'm using kde 3.2 on all my machines and I can't check if including both configurations for kde 3.2 and 3.1 works

dave

I've been using these now for a couple of day's and the word's can't say how much i like them! :) I'm having trouble with 1 thing though .. The icons don't seem to change in the tray.. Any ideas?

dave

hi, happy to read comments like these ;)
Tray icon is true uses their own default icons that usually are located at:
[kde-dir]/share/apps/[application-dir]/pics

To customize these I think I'll have to do a separate package not installable from the kontrolpanel that install these icons in the user's kde dir.

I'll think about it when finishing the theme. please post most wanted/needed icons

bye

Hmmm, Lila icons have tray icons working nicely after getting it installed from kcontrol. So it is possible with just an Icon theme.

I think that apps has theyre own icons for tray you can't do enything with it.

These are excellent, they are my default from now on. Can you add openoffice.org icons.

Whoa those icons are really improved! ok some suggestions:
A bittorent mime would be nice(look at the mime for crystal found here on kde-look)
Mozilla icons:
why don't use the dinosaur instad of the red star?
the same for thunderbird and firebird, why don't you use the animals?!

This is what I call an iconset!

Great work!

Vai così! Il tuo lavoro è davvero prezioso e unico! Complimenti vivissimi!

Ciao!

great release, congrats!
Is there any hope for the svgs to be released?
Also a lot of icons in your set are missing in the crystal one and fit very well with it (ex: edu icons, kruler icon and juk)! They could probably go in kdecvs especially if you have the svgs :-)

dave

Yes, SVGs will be available very soon. Since I've worked with Illustrator I'm converting the icons in SVG, many are already available in the gnome-themes-extras packages. You can find it here: http://librsvg.sf.net/themes.php

I think you did an amazing job on these icons! Original, cheerful and masterfully drawn.

I definitely hope that your 1.0 version of Nuvola will make it into KDE 3.3!

This prerelease is really cool, I love both the normal arrows and the player arrows. Overall the theme is really usable, compared to many other themes which either miss contrast or just don't have forms in their icons that can mek you guess what they are for.

These Icons are just awesome, great work and I like them better than Crystal(thats saying something)

Very well designed and nice colours, thanks again. :)

Excellent work! I was really disapointed to see Nuvola beeing discontinued (or at least not updated) on your website the last months.

Now I can change my icon theme to it finally :-)

Thank you and tribute to your very fine work.
