SnowIsh provides a Mac-inspired icon theme.
Also greatly inspired by VannillA Cream Icon Set made by djnjpendragon.
Again, all done with inkscape.
Version restrictions:
- Beautiful icons, but the gtk-media-previous-ltr icon is missing from both the PNG and SVG sets (it should be a copy of gtk-media-next-rtl). Also, the Trash icon doesnt show up at large sizes - the fallback is used instead.
Enhancements:
- Add a PNG version (faster)

Knotview software is a crossing between a concept mapper, a wiki and a database. The main idea behind it is to split information into small chunks (knots) and make links between them.

Visual organisation is not enforced : links can be drawn arbitrarily. With Knotview, only the user decides how the information must be shown. Creating links pointing towards files or url is possible and make it very easy to gather scattered information into a single place. Knotview can be used as a powerful bookmark manager, a mind mapper, a small database, and much more.

What distinguishes Knotview from other concept- and mind-mapping software if the fact that it separates contents from appearance. A knot consist of a title, some arbitrary properties (e.g. urls) and an associated text. It is stored in a database (kdb) which does not include any displaying informations. Display is left to a client application, and saved in a separate file (kv).

This allows some useful behaviour, such as displaying several times the same knot, in the same application. Nothing preventsdoing the same with different applications : the same knot can be displayed in a graph, and simultaneously in a todo-list software. This last feature is still planned, unfortunately. A very important feature of knotview is the ability to show the same information differently, depending on the users needs. A todo-list will be shown in a list view widget, whereas a brainstorming needs a powerful graphical interface.

Each knot can be assigned one or more user-defined categories. This allows to set shorts of type to knots. As for now, only displayed knot color is affected, but much more can be done with this. A good example where this is useful is a dictionary. Nouns, verbs, adjectives can be affected different categories. Other categories can be used to distinguish between feminine and masculine (if applicable).

More examples are given in the tutorials.
