Yes, it is a Camaelon theme.  Of course you can put it on the camaelon 
webpage. I'll send it to you when it is finished. Right now, some things are 
still missing.

That would be nice. There is also the Tango project which creates a new 
iconset for GNOME (and KDE). 

http://tango-project.org/Tango_Desktop_Project

Some examples:

http://tango-project.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines#a_KDE_artist

They also want to create a  standard icon naming specification. 

I hope the KDE people will also follow this naming specification with Oxygen. 
It would be nice if gnustep could also use it, so that GNOME/KDE icon themes 
would simply work with gnustep (gnustep should probably still have its own 
default icon theme, but the possibility to use icon themes from GNOME and KDE 
would be great).

Would it be in prinicple possible to have a Mac-like menu on top? I guess 
there are some good reasons for the vertical, next like menu, but personally 
I would like to have the option to have the menu on top.
