changing icon colours?

[oreo]

hey yer i know im kind of new here but with my current set up Ive got a blue theme happening but my icons are white which stand out a fair bit. also wen i try to edit them and add in the blue colour it add in but then it just adds a big white box around it. also if there's anything you need i will reply in the morning as i am now going to sleep haha thanks in advance all

forgot to quote i did not make the icons. the icons are called lucid icons though i do not remember who made them ><

You'll have to recolor them yourself with some program, or find new icons to replace them.

Or do a ColorMatrix or ImageTint.
Just remember that you can't really change the colour of the icon this way. You just add a layer to it of sorts.
If you want to replace the icons as they are, a suggest you use GIMP.
Good luck.

Actually, if you just use ImageTint, it "adds" the tint color to the colors in the original image. However, if you use GreyScale=1 first, then ImageTint, it will in fact "recolor" the image.

and when you go to edit the icons, make sure you do it on a transparent background and save as .png.
