I am a designer,I noticed that the entire icon system of this VS looks very cluttered, probably from different free icon libraries, and I want to create icons for it for free.

Inconsistent sizes, different visual focal points, different thicknesses, different corner radii, and illogical fill or no fill... it's so strange.

@shomnipotence Yes, there are some issues with the icons and they require a review.
Currently, there are about 2340 icons in VectorStyler, all in vector format.All these icons can be customized ("Customize Icons"), so you can experiment with it, but the icons must be in vector format.
There is a task in the backlog to review all icons, and make them more consistent, so this will be fixed at some point in the future.

@VectorStyler
I know Visual Studio is maintained by an individual developer. This seems like a huge undertaking for an individual developer, so I don't see anything wrong with me drawing it (you don't have to mention my name), and you don't necessarily have to pay me. I just really can't stand Illustrator.Also, this is my work.

@shomnipotence Those icons look excellent.
What is your opinion on icons that are mostly outline styles (not filled), and using at most gray levels, but no colors.
Also: the gray levels in the icons of VectorStyler are automatically adjusted by the light or dark themes.

@VectorStyler I absolutely support grayscale icons, because Adobe uses them and it's very successful.

@VectorStyler Do you have other ways to contact me? Do you have any needs or ideas regarding this project? Would you be willing to entrust it to me?
