I forgot to mention, there is repetition in several of the images, and repetition from some of those images already converted.

I spent a lot of time fixing those I updated yesterday --- until my eyes started glazing. I looked at those on the list and I felt like the proverbial deer in the headlight beam. I knew what needed to be done, but lack any familiarity with using graphics software. Then I really scratched my head when I realized changes were needed and the underlying colors had gradients.

One thing I have learned is editing icons with kiconedit is much better for resizing and retaining some degree of clarity than kolourpaint. The two apps must use different scaling algorithms. On the other hand, kiconedit has no Undo support for Paste actions (bug report filed).

When R14.0.0 is behind us I hope to find time to learn some basics.

Thank you all for helping!
