I don't know if the purpose of these shots is to show new "icon package" as part of the OS or the ability to use multi-color PNG icons with transparency support.

I welcome the second option! I, for so long, recommended support for true-color/transparent icons. Glad to see it happen.

To get decent icon-set, it won't cost much to pay for Everaldo's services; His work speaks for itself:

http://everaldo.com/splashs/kde3.html
http://everaldo.com/splashs/yast2-all.html
http://everaldo.com/splashs/yast2-instaler.html

I strongly recommend him.

@SimoAmi:

Those icons are definitely very professional-looking, but aren't they a bit big? I mean, I don't intend running my system at 2048x1536 all the time...


Not an issue really! This guy can design icons in any given size. Take a look:
http://everaldo.com/splashs/sigma.html

Also, in windows and mac systems, icons are stored in different sizes and color depths in the same file. e.g. 16x16/32x32/64x64.

That makes me think, why not have an upgraded icon file structure, with same file extension and backward compatiblity !!
