Paper Icon Theme
================

Paper is a modern freedesktop icon theme whose design is based around the use of bold colours and simple geometric shapes to compose icons. Each icon has been meticulously designed for pixel-perfect viewing.

While it does take some inspiration from the icons in Google's Material Design, some aspects have been adjusted to better suit a desktop environment.

###Downloading Paper

Download instructions and options are available on the [official site](https://snwh.org/paper/download).


###Build &amp; Install

You can build and install the Paper icon themes from source:

    ./autogen.sh
    make # note: this will do nothing
    sudo make install

This procedure requires ```gnome-common``` on your system.

##Missing Icons & Requests

When filing an icon request or reporting a missing icon, please take care in providing the following useful information: 

 - A screenshot of your issue or an image of the original icon you are requesting to be themed
 - The file name for the missing icon or the requested icon, for example `gimp.png` or `system-shutdown.svg`
 - A short description of the application or software that you are requesting an icon for.

Note: some software ships hardcoded icons, meaning when you install icons are not placed in the system-wide directory `/usr/share/icons` which makes them unthemeable.
