Actually all the icons should be overlooked because almost all of them are 5-8 years old.

You're right. We need someone to look at them and kill most of them. Rodney was planning to do it. I'm not sure if he will have time.

I would say leaving only:

gnome-desktop/pixmaps/apple-red.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-background-image.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-debian.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-emacs.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-gimp.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-gmush.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-home.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-log.png

gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-logo-icon-transparent.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-logo-large.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-mnemonic.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-spider.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-squeak.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-term-linux.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-term-linux2.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-term-night.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-term-tiger.png
gnome-desktop/pixmaps/gnome-tigert.png


As you might note I only left the funny animals and plants and the still current icons like debian and gimp one.

Tango icons for gnome-desktop

Drop-in replacement for apple-green, apple-red, gnome-aorta.png (should be killed ?), gnome-color-browser (Andreas Nilsson), gnome-gimp (Jimmac), gnome-computer, gnome-laptop, gnome-debian, gnome-irc, gnome-set-time & gnome-gmush (should be killed ?)

Thanks!
I've committed the 48x48 versions. We don't have svg in there, so I didn't commit those versions.

all icons are gone now
