I think that valknut would benefit from new icons, and yours do look nice.
However, I think your icons for the main program e.g. icon_64x64.xpm and splash.xpm are too generic, they don't really have anything to do with valknut or direct connect.
Since valknut seems to have been designed with support for icon themes, I will have a look at the code and see if it's possible to have support for user selectable icon themes (the current ones could stay in default, yours could go in a new directory called tango). Might be a little bit tricky, as ideally we need to list the directory to generate a list of icon themes.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There is a new Tab GUI -> Icons.
Icon themes go in folders next to the "default" folders, e.g. create a new folder called tango, set the application icon them to tango, then restart valknut to see all the changes. You can also set themes for userlist icons and emoticons.

There was also an old icon set for OS X that was aquaified and looked fairly nice. I'll try to dig it up from the forum at some point. I'll probably have to make a new tracker item since I can't attach things to a tracker item someone else opened.

Made some patches for icon theme configuration. You need both of these:
http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~csucda/patches/valknut-0.3.8.1-icon-themes.patch
http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~csucda/patches/valknut-0.3.8.1-load-order.patch
(and redid a previous patch http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~csucda/patches/valknut-0.3.8.1-data-path-setting-v2.patch because I forgot i already had a patch that changes dcconfig.cpp/h)

Also, many of the xpm files in the attached tango tarball are really PNGs.
