What happened to the old icons

(1/1)

Plank:
This is a rather dumb question but it's really bothering me I don't know why, I switched to Linux a while ago and i noticed that the icons are looking kind of flat and not how they looked on windows. It's probably because they updated them but i really hate the new icons and I'm not sure why. I uploaded two screenshots, the first one the old icons and the second one are the icons that I have right now. Anyone knows a way to get them back? I tried installing older versions but it really messed up the system since the packages were apparently broken, so I had to purge it.

sodev:
A lot of work was done to provide icons in multiple resolutions to give better results in HiDPI environments, i don't think the old icons will return. Of course you could always extract them from an own build and rename/move them into the proper locations and create all required resolutions by simply resizing them, but im afraid that will take quite some time.

Plank:
Huh, well thanks for the info.

The new icons are hosted here https://github.com/specialmart/cb-icons
If you want any of the icons to changed you have to provide a patch for the svg images with your proposal.
