"STK w/Irrlicht": New icons!

Hi everyone! After the great new logo we got, we've just got a set of main menu icons. Many thanks to yekcim for making those. :)
They blend very nicely in with the new logo, don't you think?

There's still a lot more icons needed. If you are interested in helping with this, you can contact the STK crew beforehand to get some advice on what we're looking for, and avoid duplicating work. Eventually, if you're comfortable with it, you can get the latest SVN version of SuperTuxKart and find one/several icons you want to improve. Most icons, excluding the new main menu ones, are only placeholders until we get something better.
We are looking forward to your contribution; icons or otherwise. ;)

---------------

Note: As the "STK w/Irrlicht" branch is still in a very unstable state, the general public is recommended to use the latest stable version (0.6.2) of SuperTuxKart.

    I like them, specially the first one, the one for "race". But I wonder if those icons come from an SVG source, or are just PNGs, because in the screenshots it looks like they don't come from SVG, which would be a problem in big resolutions.

    Gallaecio : we have SVGs for them =) What you see on the screenshot is probably the lack of proper downsizing in irrLicht (which should be fixed in the next version of irr)

    Very, very nice. I don't know why, but I like the orange. Even though I normally hate orange.
    Must be STK7's ability to make everything it touches awesome.

    Now I wonder when the new logo arrives on the blog

    Well, I think we want to keep the current logo until 0.7 is out, since it might be confusing for newcomers to find another logo in the last stable version. We must care about branding. ;)

    I can't help noticing the 'Network' icon on the screenshot. Does that mean LAN or full-on online play?

    TheGeek: it's planned, and even partially implemented, but not stable enough. LAN is buggy; full online play doesn't work at all. Probably this button will be hidden before release. Maybe for 0.8 :)

    I'd like to commission the rest of these icons (or at least some of them). Can someone please provide a list?

    Thanks,

    @bart : you can simply check our SVN repository : http://supertuxkart.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/supertuxkart/main/branches/irrlicht/data/gui/ . It'd be nice to avoid duplicate work between contributors though

    Edit: A binary for Solaris has been made by xeno74, and it can be found at the SourceForge download page.
