Nautilus supports combining icons by JD> adding an "emblem" on top of them. Therefore you can add a "valid JD> emblem" on top of a "CSS icon". See gvfs-set-attribute. Sorry, I don't know how that would help inside Emacs or Gnus. You'd have to compose the image yourself, right? Plus you'd lose the visual consistency that Silk provides by having individually designed icons. I have almost convinced myself to make iconset-silk.el an ELPA package now :) I may also provide a general iconset.el library that would make it easier to interact with iconset-silk.el symbolically. Would that be OK? Is there already a library to do this? Ted
