It's not a Tango guideline...at least I don't remember reading it on 
their site.  I did note it in my very first message in the "New Icon 
Set...[echo]..." email 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2006-August/msg00010.html
Sure, feel free to add a link/note about it. 

I did not have a hard rule for any of the other 24x24 icon 
types...Originally I had thought that the emotion icons would be 
straight on...but they're circular...so it's pretty much a circle 
regardless...I think what Luya has done is pretty good in terms of 
perspectives. 

Maybe the weather ones...I dunno...it might work to flatten the 24 but I 
can't really say till I've either made or see someone make a few...so 
far I only have pieces: sun, clouds, one rain drop, and a snow 
flake...still playing around with it.

Lastly...emblems...was thinking about this recently...would like some 
feedback when the .tar goes out this week.  Right now the emblems 
created are at an angle...but should not be difficult to convert if we 
find that it doesn't work.  I will be posting them in a bit.
