Those icons also look really good. I'm so glad all these open applications are getting a face lift; it makes them so much more appealing.

I have a question about standard toolbar icons. I notice that when I run inkscape in Gnome in Ubuntu, the system provides some of the standard icons in toolbar for things like Open, Save, Print, Cut, Copy and Paste. These Ubuntu provided icons look really good (are they Tango?). However, in the Windows version of Inkscape (or is it GTK+ ?), the standard icons just look a little dreary, and washed out. Is there any chance that the Windows users could have brighter icons which follow the Windows style guidelines? - like the Silk Icons (http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/), or for that matter any icons which follow the Tango style guidlines?
Hi Joel! I assume you refer to the gtk+ stock icons that are being used in the stable windows builds, and yes, they fit in somewhat bad on windows. However, new gtk+ stock icons are coming in the next stable release (gkt+ 2.12?). These should blend in a bit better with other windows applications.
