I attach to this mail the current Tango-ified LyX icons. They are probably not 
interesting on Windows platform as Tango is mostly a linux thing.

I don't think that the OS matters here. The most important thing is that you know what the button stands for.

As I said, at present, my main issue for distribution is the mixing of several licenses. I do not know under 
which license the whole may be distributed. I have done a significant work (in terms of hours) to shrink 22 and 
24 pixels icons to fit in 20, while preserving the aspect, and sometimes I did some pixel work ("pdf", 
"ps", "dvi" words, outline icons, footnote & margin note icons). I have no issue in 
putting my contribution under any license that would be compatible with the original ones.

LyX in general only accepts the GPL version 2 or later (and Creative commons (needs to be discussed first on the lyx-devel list)).

A little text file explains the history of most icons. I tried to use Tango 
icons mainly, they are public domain. The part I took from gimp can be easily 
redone (and will be for consistency I think). I also provide some xcf files for 
icons that have common parts.

Your work is impressive but perhaps too much. The current LyX icons are known by the users and thus shouldn't be changed if possible. I see the problem you mentioned that icons with 24x24 pixels look blurred and I think we should only fix these icons and make them 20x20 icons.

Your icons are nevertheless very nice and we should have a discussion about them. I therefore propose to upload them to our Wiki:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Icons

I'm forwarding this to the lyx-devel list.

regards Uwe
