F7 Icon image files png vs. svg broken?

["Jerry Williams" <jwilliam xmission com>]

It looks like .svg images files don't work in the menus.
And they don't show up in Gnome Browse icons window either.
But I found that if I use gimp and create a .png file that it will use that
in the menus without changing the .desktop file.

So are .svg files suppose to work?
