As some of you may have noticed by now, OSNews has started using icons from the Tango Project to replace many of our old icons. You can spot the new icons conveniently on the topic page. In the Tango icon library we have found numerous icons we could use, but understandably, Tango was not made for OSNews: we cannot replace all the icons we want with Tango icons - yet. And this is where you come into play. So, read on for the rationale behind choosing the Tango icon set, and how you can help us - and win a subscription to our ad-free version!

I believe he was talking about the OSNews Icons. I, too, believe it is kinda overkill to hire a professional to draw like 10 to 15 icons, just so the site will look a bit better ? Perhaps less than that...
It is like hiring a professional programmer to help you optimize some code in a script for an excel file...

when you put it that way, it's hard not to feel bugged for the icon designers. Stuff like the tango project, everaldo's work, and I'm sure the oxygen project (when we see it) is much, MUCH more than a handful of symbols.
