I use Flatro but I also like Umbra.
Anyone know a pack like the OP but without shadows?

If only it had more icons
Flat with long shadows is literally the most cancerous design style since skeuomorphic died.
I think it just annoys me so much because shadows on a flat icon doesn't make sense, and yes I also dislike Google's material style, though not as much.

That's a good picture depicting what it is going for. However, it still seems silly to me because no such things exist normally IRL so it is strange to see a representation of it in my interfaces.

What are those icons for? I thought you just needed the standard file icons for Thunar

How?

I posted it to reaffirm how silly it is.

Oh, okay thanks for the reassurance, now my autism can finally go to rest.
I've been trying to find a simple B&W or grey scale icon pack that doesn't look like complete shit. The most decent I've found are the Token icons, but I still don't even like them very much.
I know colorless isn't exactly popular here, but does anyone have any suggestions?

>>53146561
Real physical buttons with raised and inset text are pretty common actually, that's what these things are intended to imitate.

raised/inset designs*
It's not limited to text obviously.
Brand icons are almost always raised and large on some kind of flat background. A lot of markets do this with text in the US, lots of

looking things.

Yeah, but to get the length of shadow that long shadow design wants, the inset text has to be ludicrously tall.
>>53146861
>>53146839
I mean it would depend on the light source, no? A low angle light would make sense for these buttons but may be uncommon for real buttons simply because of the way they're placed and oriented, buttons designed for phones and the like may be designed with the angle at which you view them in mind.
In reality I don't actually know, that's just my assumption on it, I think it looks stupid most of the time.
I also can't find a good image to show what I'm talking about, so not really related image.
>>53146899
Long shadow design wants shadows 2.5 times the size of the object. If you have a light source low enough to cause that, then that in itself is retarded design.
>>53146950
I think that's why some people dislike it, it's really bad either way. Being digital they have some creative liberty though, they're not and shouldn't be bound to simply imitating real objects imo, I say that even if I dislike this particular type most of the time.

B&W icons start to look so annoying after you've had them for a while, no matter how great they looked initially.
>>53145295
Those shadows look stupid and ugly as hell.

Iceglass.
Not sure if they're available for mobile, though.

Flight, flight dark, and piptec are pretty much the same pack just in different colors, but muh ricing.
