Before commenting out line 2:
Panel at 24px - http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g294/GreySim/cc-smallicons.png
Panel at 26px - http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g294/GreySim/cc-normalicons.png
With line 2 commented out the icons appear at the size in the second screenshot with the panel set back down to 24px.
Thanks for the help.
Also remembered another suggestion. On some of the dark themes, the selected text color is much more readable when set to black. I'm not sure which themes that applied to, but it's certainly true with Wise Dark. Sorry if you already changed that, but I haven't used a Dark theme for a few revisions now. - Apr 13 2008

Few issues though, a possible bug, and a few matters of personal taste.
Bug: Panel icon sizes are now very bizarre. Not sure if it's just my icon theme (something generated with the Tango Generator under Gutsy several months ago), but with the panel set to 24px, notification tray icons which used to display at full-size now switch to a much smaller size (Rhythmbox, Compiz Tray Icon, and the update tool icon specifically, the others seem fine). This led me to switch to 26px to get my icons "normal" again, which is overall an improvement (user switcher icon no longer cuts off), but then the trash icon goes to a much larger size (all other icons are normal size). Not sure how much of this is the GTK theme and how much is the icon theme, but all I know is it wasn't a "problem" in the version before 0.60 (which I skipped).
Personal taste matter: With the compacting of the theme, you eliminated the padding of menu items. Personally, I loved your theme because it always kept a bit of padding on them, even if only 2px. Is that something you might reconsider? I'll edit if I have to, as I already have to edit each version to enable colored scrollbars anyway, but I don't see much of a space gain by eliminating it. Anyone else feel this way or am I just weird?
Personal taste matter #2: Not sure how I feel about the compacted buttons yet, but is there any chance you could add comments on what you changed in the gtkrc so that people who liked the bigger buttons can change it back?
However any of that goes, thanks for the wonderful themes. I use Clearlooks Human with your orange wallpaper most of the time and love it, and your Clearlooks Wise Dark is the first dark theme I've been able to use for more than a day without itching to switch back, and I found a nice matching wallpaper. http://img.socwall.com/Abstract/General/200810032000-6721.jpg Also, let me know if screenshots would help illustrate the point with the icons, I can provide them if needed. - Apr 13 2008

One, I forgot to check to recieve email replies on the last message. >.<
Two, this might be getting more complicated than you care for or than the situation warrants, but I imagine it would be possible to somehow automatically "patch" .desktop files with hard-coded icon paths to use themed icons. Judicious use of ls cat and grep, looking for Exec lines to match specific applications, copying the path of the existing icon, copying that icon to hicolor or where ever the icons without hard-coded paths are stored, then changing the Icon entry to use the generic name so that the generator cover it, but if the user goes back to a non-generator theme, they're still covered. Different distros that use different .desktop file names should be covered since the Exec line shouldn't really be changing, and all the other parts of the .desktop file are left intact.
I'm sure if you're interested in functionality like that there's a better way than ls grep and cat though, but just wanted to throw it out there if you thought it was a fitting and worthwhile feature to add; myself, I'm fine with tweaking my .desktop files manually after installing the generated theme if that's what it takes. :P - Nov 27 2007

Let me know if you want anything else. I don't actually understand how some of those icons are getting pulled, so if you need me to dig for other directory names or anything I'd be glad to. (I know that not specifying a path lets a theme change app icons, but I don't understand how some of these more obscure apps would be using non-generic icons that aren't themed unless the install process puts them in hicolor and all/most themes inherit hicolor or something...) - Nov 27 2007

But in response to your call for un-Tangoized apps, here's what I found in my menu (might overlap with other postings for which I apologize, but I don't have the time to comb 200+ comments, and I'm assuming if you're keeping a running list it should be fairly trivial to spot duplicates...):

This isn't a particular request by any means. Just a summary of the icons on my system that are missing or not fully up to the standards of the rest of the Tango stuff on my system IMO. IIRC I generated this theme shortly after an update to Tango Generator 2 also, though I don't remember exactly what options I used. - Nov 26 2007

I was wondering if, when you release the next version, you could tweak the .icon files for folders at least so that emblems for open folders and folders that are being dragged onto stay in the same place as they are in the folder's normal state. It's been a while since I've used the default .icon files, but if I remember correctly, the normal state has the emblems placed starting from the lower left, but when hovering over or dragging to a folder, it jumps to the upper right, and outside of the normal bounds of the icon too, causing the icons to rearrange themselves slightly.
I don't remember exactly what tweaks I made, but I believe it was just copying the placement info out of the .icon file for the normal folder in scalable and pasting it into two or three other folder icon state .icon files.
Either way, thanks for the generator. I can't use any other icon theme now. :) - Nov 03 2007

I put both in 'alphabetical' order in both locations, but I don't know if that matters. Emblems now seem to be working for me. Hope that helps. - Nov 03 2007

I'm going to give it a shot, but between chronic procrastination and lack of artistic talent, I doubt it'll go anywhere. >.< - Jul 08 2007
