# Gimp HiDPI
A theme to for HiDPI displays (Macbook Pro Retina / X1 Carbon).
I am (at the time of writing) running Gnome 3.18 and Gimp 2.8. Gnome handles
scaling the UI pretty well but Gimp is lacking with the icons.
In summary, I just replaced the icons with flat-style SVGs and changed the
background color.
## Installation
1.) First, [download the zip file of this
repo](https://github.com/jedireza/gimp-hidpi/archive/master.zip).
2.) Then unzip it into your local Gimp themes folder:
```bash
$ unzip gimp-hidpi-master.zip -d ~/.gimp-2.8/themes/
$ mv ~/.gimp-2.8/themes/gimp-hidpi-master/ ~/.gimp-2.8/themes/gimp-hidpi/
```
3.) Then choose the theme in Gimp via `Edit > Preferences`.
## Inspiration
### sv32
The `imagerc` file was inspired by the sv32 icon theme:
- http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/?content=150006
### Toolbar icons
The icons are from the [GNOME Project](http://www.gnome.org). Specifically I
found them here:
- https://github.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-icons/
### Background color
