Description

The talented Andreas Nilsson [1] has created an updated MPlayer application icon that complies with the Tango icon theme guidelines [2].

The aim of these guidelines is to help create a consistent graphical user interface experience for free and Open Source software.

As the guidelines page states:

"The Tango icon theme's goal is to make applications not seem alien on any desktop. A user running a multiplatform application should not have the impression that the look is unpolished and inconsistent with what he or she is used to. While this isn't about merging styles of all desktop systems, we do aim to not be drastically different on each platform."

I think this makes MPlayer a prime candidate for such an icon style.

The icon is drawn in SVG, so it is a scalable vector. To ensure the icon is sharp at commonly displayed sizes (16x16, 22x22, etc.), a specific version is provided for each of these sizes (with a 48px size that can gracefully scale up to any larger size).

A preview of the icon at the various sizes can be seen here: http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Fridays (scroll down near the bottom)

If there are any issues with the icon as drawn, please let us know.

Is license information available?

There is information for the Tango Desktop Project Icon Library, but it is missing for the Tango Fridays.
