Hi,

 I just thought I'd look around on KDE-Look etc. to see if there are any 
not-too-fancy icon sets which aren't the KDE defaults (AFAIK) and which 
could be used for GNUstep with the new IconKit... Here's a few possible 
candidates:

Exquisite:
Has some KDE-ish gears in some of the icons, but otherwise looks fairly 
nice. A little reminiscent of Aqua, and goes with the current crop of 
photorealistic icons.

Cezanne:
This set is kinda split up, and I think the folder icons are too faint, 
but otherwise they look nice.

Ximian OOo Crystal SVG:
Sadly only a few app icons for OOo, but they look neat nonetheless.

Here's a few more that aren't really suitable but which I liked 
nonetheless:

Umicons 2.0:
Too fancy for a default theme, but a great design nonetheless... if a 
little scary.

g&file2=7214-2.jpg&file3=&name=Umicons+2.0

Free Icons:
Kind of cartoonish with a BeOS kind of feel. Probably not that easy to 
design for either, but good icon design nonetheless.

g&file2=1822-2.jpg&file3=1822-3.jpg&name=Free+Icons

SNOWE2-Tangerine-Template:
Kinda nice-looking, though it contains lots of stolen MacOS X icons, so 
I guess it'd be legally dangerous to use this.

Evolve:
Not sure about this one, very colorful and unique but probably too hard 
for non-professionals to create icons in a matching style for.
http://kde-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=14934&file1=14934-1.

Well, it all seems to be getting weirder from here on...

Anybody else know good free icon themes?

Cheers,
