Hi ,
There has been a change of plan for those empathy icons. Upstream wants
to make the icon seem more "click-able". Doing it in Monochrome will not
fix the problem there...



However , anyone interested in contributing to Humanity could have a
look at > 

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/HumanityIcons

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/HumanityIcons/Guidelines

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/HumanityIcons/Contributing

The wiki is a bit rough and needs some clean up . 
The members who were asking about contributing [Sebastien and Oliver]
had already started contributing, hence, i slacked a bit on the wiki and
announcements ... :(

For the monochrome panel icons we are planning to include the app icons
in the theme with the *-symbolic labels. This ensures that the icon used
in the panel alone would be monochrome and isnt used elsewhere in the
system. [of course apps need to be fixed as well :)  ]

lp:humanity already has several changes post karmic and a few new
monochrome icons.

There are a large number of monochrome icons on gnome-look. We would
like to include some of them in the humanity-icon-theme. 
If the authors of those icons would like them included in the humanity
theme , do submit it. Thanks. :)
