Testing out the theme

[Diana Fong]

Hi Leon...

I'm currently using Illustrator to create the icons and when I save as 
.svg, some characteristics don't seem to carry over when opened in 
Inkscape.  Mostly it's the blending options that do not translate well.  
Example: I've found with the icons that have "paper file" images in them 
is that one of the layer did not adopt the "Multiply" Blending option I 
gave it and so instead of letting the image behind that layer show 
through, the gradient is to a solid white.  Inkscape, on the other hand 
has the ability to gradient to transparency and so by setting the white 
to transparent (and tweaking the middle grays) it will look more like 
the .png. 

I'll fix the Utillities-terminalL.svg icon.
