Gnome-friendly icons
Calibre can look a bit out of place on a gnome desktop due to the oxygen icons that come bundled with it. I've put together a partial replacement icon theme based on Tango and Humanity. Enjoy!
To use on debian-based distros, copy contents of /images/ to /usr/share/calibre/images/ For other GNU/Linux distributions, open up a terminal and use the command Code:

I have no idea I'm creating a framework so that all calibre static content icons/templates/translations becomes user replaceable. Thanks to calibre's modular design, all it takes is a couple of hours of work
