I am trying to upload icons to the wiki to add illustrations to the

I am having trouble finding icons for several applications such as
Evolution. I even
downloaded the source in an attempt to locate the icons.
Does any one know of a linux utility that extracts embedded icons from
a linux
application? I know of several such utilities for Windows.
If such a utility doesn't exist, is there an alternate method to
achieve the same results.
Hi John,
I think most of these icons are in /usr/share/icons/gnome. A few
different sizes are available so you can use larger, more easily
readable versions in your docs. For instance:
$ cd /usr/share/icons/gnome
$ find -type f | grep send
./24x24/stock/generic/stock_send-fax.png
./24x24/stock/net/stock_mail-send.png
./24x24/stock/net/stock_mail-send-receive.png
./16x16/stock/generic/stock_send-fax.png
./16x16/stock/net/stock_mail-send.png
./16x16/stock/net/stock_mail-send-receive.png
./32x32/stock/net/stock_mail-send.png
./32x32/stock/net/stock_mail-send-receive.png
./48x48/stock/net/stock_mail-send.png

Most GTK and GNOME applications draw their icons from a common pool to
prevent each application from having to package its own, and to promote
common theming.
