[SOLVED] xfce panel Icons

Hello all just installed Xfce on my arch linux distro and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to change the Icons on panel 1. I've managed to change my folder Icons and my window themes and love the look but the icons on the panel i.e. sound and power icon look pretty dated is there any way I can change those? any and all help is apperciated.

Re: [SOLVED] xfce panel Icons

your icon theme seems to be xfce incompatible it's probably missing one of those status files

Re: [SOLVED] xfce panel Icons

Try installing the elementary-xfce-icons-git icon theme from the AUR. It contains a good set of monochrome panel icons in grey or black (which is more along the lines of what themes are doing these days with panel icons).

Re: [SOLVED] xfce panel Icons

ok so I have a small issue I downloaded  elementary-xfce-icons-git and the icons work great except some of the adjusment bars wont show i.e. the volume adjument bar on the speaker icon is greyed out I can turn it up but I can't see anything on it.

Re: [SOLVED] xfce panel Icons

That's strange, I don't have this problem. What Appearance theme are you running? Does changing the theme help?
