<p align="center"><font size="5"><b>FileZilla 3 Icon set specification</b></font></p>

<p><b><u>Introduction:</u></b></p>

<p>This document describes the requirements for icon sets in FileZilla 3.</p>

<p>
  Please remember that if you want to create an icon set for FileZilla,
  that you should be available to update the icon set in the feature when it's
  required. Else it could happen that the icon set will be removed.
</p>

<p><b><u>Requirements:</u></b></p>
<p>
  Since FileZilla is Free Software, the same has to apply to all artwork used 
  in FileZilla. This means that all artwork has to be published under the GPL
  or a GPL compatible license.
</p>

<p>
  To improve accessability of the software, the icons should be available in
  different sizes. Each icon has to be available at least in the following 
  sizes:
</p>
<ul>
  <li>16x16</li>
  <li>32x32</li>
  <li>48x38</li>
</ul>

<p>
  It is important, that the icons are good-looking in all those sizes.<br>
  As fileformat for the icons, the png format has to be used. For each 
  provided size there has to be a subdirectory with the size as name 
  ("16x16" for example) containing all icons in the corresponding size.
</p>

<p>
  If possible, despite the files for the different sizes, each icon should be
  available in a vector based format (e.g. SVG), so that differently sized icons can 
  quickly be generated.
</p>

<p>
  Regarding the used color-depth there is no limitation. But you should restrict transparency to a simple 1-bit mask. Windows cannot handle toobar icons with full alpha transparency. But you can create multiple versions of your icon set to fill the needs for both Windows on the one hand and quality operatin systems on the other hand.
</p>

<p>
  Each icon set should follow a theme, the icons should match nicely. Also,
  the function of the icon has to be easily recognizeable.
</p>

<p><b><u>Required icons:</u></b></p>

<p>
  The following icons together with the required file name are required in all
  icon sets for FileZilla:
</p>

<p><b>General toolbar:</b></p>
<ul>
  <li>sitemanager.png - Sitemanager</li>
  <li>localtreeview.png, remotetreeview.png, logview.png, queueview.png
    - Togglebuttons for the local folder tree, for the remote folder tree, 
      the message log, and the transfer queue.</li>
  <li>refresh.png - a refresh button</li>

    reconnect buttons

</ul>
