Vivacious Colors is a vivid, modern and customizable GTK icon theme.
With a uniquely bold style of it's own.
Featuring an completely NEW set of application icons (Re-designed by RAVEfinity based on Plasma-Next, Flattr and Emerald. But now a lot different). And amazing folders and indicators. All the icons in vivacious are modern and clean but make use of gradients and shading for more detail and sophistication. Vivacious uses a fusion of components from many great open source icon projects. But we add and develop many new aspects of our own on top of this Including taking on new App icon development & re-design and other aspects as needed.

New 1.3 Version Features many new and improved app icons, New apps icons for apps like Kodi, Plex etc. And other fixes and enhancements.

Fully tested/built to work on most major GTK desktops including:
Unity, Cinnamon, Gnome Shell, Gnome Classic, Mate, Xfce, LXDE, Openbox and more.

Theme Requires about 58 MB When installed.
And Up to 90 MB if you decide to install the 10 extra folder colors addon.

4 Colors of Folders are Selectable by default:
Stock Manila Folders, Blue, Purple, Mint Teal.

10 More Folder Colors Are Available Via "Vivacious-Folder-Colors-Addon"
Aqua ,Graphite ,Blue Vivid (Dark), Brown, Green, Purple Vivid (Dark),Red, Pink, Orange, Yellow.

Vivacious Colors is based on our tried and true Vibrancy Colors icon theme framework (Folders, Indicators, Actions etc). However we have completely replaced the rounded App icons with a newly re-designed (With some parts built from scratch) Set of vivid and beautiful application icons that come in multiple shapes and are fully SVG.

Vivacious uses Plasma Next icons as a base for our app icons. However we have overhauled the look of nearly everything (to match our design vision) We have also created lots of new icons and redesigned many aspects. The theme has also been built out so nearly all common apps and even uncommon ones "theme" with our theme! A huge thanks to the Emerald Icon theme and Vince Luice for his hard work making Plasma Next Icons more GTK friendly. Vivacious is based on Emerald and Plasma but we look different as we have gone in a different direction.
