linux-howto

http://crunchbang.org – Hello there!i think i cant really help you, because i have the same problem with some of my apps and it seem nearly impossible to find out where the icon tint uses is comming from.I wanted to change several icons showed in the taskbar and sometimes it was helpful to change the icon inside the .desktop-file, sometimes i replaced the icons in the icon folder of /usr/share/applications/DESIEREDAPP and sometimes i even changed the icons in high- or lowcolor fallback-themes (/usr/share/icons/) but there are still some tasks not showing my choosen icon. But as for you, maybe you try to add pinta.png (HowTos)
