    I just optimized the .png's so I advice you to re-download and re-install them if you like.
    They are even lighter than the default .png's by half (4kb each and default ones are 8kb).

    Right?
    What you want is Debian's diversions. You can divert those icons and replace them with your own. When your package is removed you'll just have to restore the diversions. As a bonus, diversions work with upgrades too. This means that your icons will survive even after a system upgrade.

    Have a look here.

    Hey Lacedaeman, when i put mv MyDocs/.documents/battery_scalable/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ in Xterminal, it says mv: cannot rename, no such file or directory. What is going on?? I did place the folder battery_scaleable in my Documents

    Is there a program or manager where i can easily look into the root and move files i want in folders?

    Try the following and let me know:
    Code:
    mv home/user/MyDocs/.documents/battery_scalable/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/

    I try that too...i think the problem is i use .share

    Now it is asking me to overwrite the .png and i enter 'y' but permission is denied??

    I did type sudo gainroot to start it out. I also have sudser installed and use sudo -i too.

    It says MyDocs/.documents/battery_scalable/statusarea_battery_full100.png: Permission denied.

    even though i start out Xterminal by typing sudo gainroot.

    I have root access with the sudo -i command because i installed sudser.

    I got the battery_scalable working but not the 48x48

    I did this for the battery_48x48:

    mv Mydocs/.documents/battery_48x48/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/

    mv: cannnot rename 'Mydocs/.documents/battery_48x48/*': No such file or directory

    I did that after installing rootsh

    What is going on anyway?

    Retype that command as

    mv MyDocs/.documents/battery_48x48/* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/

    Linux is case sensitive so it will recognize a difference between Mydocs and MyDocs.
