What is the Tango Desktop Project?
The Tango Desktop Project was formed to help create a consistent graphical user interface experience for free and Open Source software. They felt that there needed to be a nice vector-based icon set that could create a consistent user interface for the Linux desktop. The Tango icons are building upon many of the current icon concepts used by KDE, GNOME, and Firefox, aiming to create icons that are light, crisp, straight, simplified, modern, and well-balanced.
This site, and the project it represents, is dedicated to their clear and consistent use in a desktop environment the original creators likely never even thought possible: Windows XP.
