These are (without the file type): about_kde go_old go kfs_kde (might want a totally new mascot character /thing) I can make a mascot/character if so desired) kmenu krec krita_kra krita However, I do realize that by changing a subset of icons and imagery I would have to force myself to stay within their style and feel. Where as a completely new set (yes more work) could be desired more. I also realize that only some of the art that might be desired to be replaced is within tde-tdeartwork. Pauline Martin
