In fact gretl uses a mix of icon sources: whenever there's a suitable "GTK stock icon" for a given role, we use it; if there's nothing suitable in GTK we add our own icon. And whenever we use a GTK stock icon the actual image that appears is governed by the GTK theme in force. That can vary across Linux distros, and is also typically settable by the user.
