So I recently redid a full system icon pack based on/ using the open source material design icons from google. I wanted to have an icon pack that could completely adapt my whole system to any colour I wanted, and ended up having to make my own.

I shared this recently here.

I’m releasing it very soon, and would love some ideas or tips I should consider in the last moments before I submit the finished first release?

So far I know I need many more app icons, but other than that would love some ideas/ tips. Thanks.

(I’d love a list of app names I need to name the app icons to so they automatically apply.)

Yes mathematically it scales perfectly. Except in the end it still gets rasterized. Because you have carrying line thicknesses in the icons themselves, it’s important to check how the icons look at common scales / sizes on a regular monitor resolutions such as 1080p, 1440p, and 4k.

This is very intriguing. I’ve been testing it and it seems good, but maybe I’m not looking for the right thing. Care to explain what you mean?
