You can download the zip file for publication 13 (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...6&postcount=13) and unzip it to the /calibre/resources/images directory.
Or, if you have a backup, you can restore it.

I tried doing this and it didn't work. The only thing it changed was the thumbnails in the icon theme selector. What's the path exactly?

Nevermind! I figured out NOT to use that path; C:\Program Files\Calibre2\app\resources\images

Save it in a folder elsewhere. Go to Preferences -> Advanced -> Miscellaneous -> Create a calibre icon theme

Then select the containing folder. It finally asks where to save the reference zip. Phew! Thank you for the files! Love this icon theme!

Sorry for the delay in responding.
On Linux, the path to unzip the zip is ~/.config/calibre/resources/images/
On Windows,
C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\calibre\resourc es\images\
Restart Calibre.
In Calibre, go to
Preferences → Appearance → Icon Theme and select the new theme.

The zip in post #13 is for users who want to use the pack.

I'll leave this information for other users since you solved it differently.
