+
+Many years ago, when OpenLP was first released, computer screens with millions of colours were very new, and most people
+had what are tiny screens by today's standards. I remember getting my first 17" monitor, and it was positively HUGE - it
+could even show 1024 by 768 pixels (a pixel is a single dot on your screen). Wow!
+
+In those days, most icons were 16 by 16 pixels because if they were any bigger, they'd get in the way of the rest of the
+user interface. And so we created static icons that were stuck at 16 by 16 pixels. Time moves on, but sadly without a
+designer, OpenLP was unable to move on too, and now we're stuck with tiny icons and 4K screens.
+
+If you're a designer and you'd like to contribute to OpenLP, now's your chance! We really need a refreshed icon set, one
+that can scale with the monitor sizes of today. You'll need to have working knowledge of Inkscape (or be willing to
+learn how to use it), and the time available to design about 150 icons (or less, if we have a number of designers who
+work together).
+
+You can get into contact with us via `IRC`_, the `forums`_ or info [at] openlp.org.
