Description Thomas Rossi 2021-12-16 09:08:14 UTC

SUMMARY
In the same vein of the Music and Video folder, I think about folder icons for storing ebooks and/or comics libraries:
- a folder with a book cover icon or with several books (a bit like the Calibre icon)
- a folder with a speech bubble (for comics)

I think a specific folder for this type of media is missing both in icon sets in general, but also in the standard freedesktop norm, while it could totally sit alongside a Video or Music folder :-)

Oh yes this would be nice. I've been using the bookmarks folder icon for my books folder, and having a real icon would be quite lovely.
