+# elementary-xfce Icon theme
+
+This is an icon-theme maintained with Xfce in mind, but it should work on other desktops like Gnome3 as well.
+
+It is a fork of the upstream [elementary project](http://elementary.io). The reason for forking was that the project decided to focus on its own desktop environment and dropped a ton of (ugly, but necessary) symlinks. This icon-theme is supposed to keep everything working, but gets updates from upstream occasionally.
+
+We'd like to encourage you to not only consider contributing to this, but also to the original icon-set. \ No newline at end of file
