Some icons are making me sad

Sorry for the subject, I couldn't find anything better.

The point is some dapper (and earlier) icons are not matching the gnome
color palette. I could fix this, but I want to know first if I'm crazy
or you agree on this (to avoid working for nothing)

* Gnome-power: the colors are too bright and the borders too thick. The
icon in the systray seems to be an "intruder" from another icon theme.
* Firefox: this icons have various issues, its blue is too bright and
doesn't match the gnome blue tones so it doesn't feel gnome-ish. It's
very low contrast (hard to recognise). Maybe it would be nice to use the
Firefox logo or the epiphany icon.
* The new evolution icon looks like Tango :) Maybe it needs more
contrast
* The network monitor applet icon seems to have their borders blurred.
missing low-res version??
* The OO.org icons are (maybe) too light and confuse.

I can send proposals to fix all of these, but tell me your opinions
first, please

Happy dapper,
	Koke
