first of all thanks for this!

a couple of random thoughts after installing and having a look at them:

1) using red as default color for folders can be quite confusing to people who are new to linux since this purports the feeling that those folders are inaccessible, or locked or something. In fact this was a intuitive reaction of a friend of mine who just tried to use Thunar and got confused about the color
2) also, using red as a default color IMO doesn't integrate well with the wm theme we use, grey as a default color would be more suitable 
3) the 'Desktop' icon is IMHO too similar to the other ones, especially the folder icon so that it becomes hard to differentiate particularly when setting the icon size to 'small' or 'very small' in the Thunar preference
4) I like HDD icon, it really lives up to the name of the icon collection. maybe the other ones could adopt grey too and be more in the style of this one?

Bug description:
years ago i did this icon theme for UbuntuStudio - http://ubuntu-art.org/content/show.php/UbuntustudioCleaned?content=84325 - i don't know how many Puredyne users enjoy minimal artwork, specially on icon themes - my idea is about only changing the #009bf8 colour with #dd3344 (i don't know if it is the exact official Puredyne colour) - what do you all think?
