Hi Huang,

Have you tried resizing your panel from 24 px tall to 48 px tall? For me, in
F11 in GNOME, if I size my panel up from 24 px tall to 48 px tall, GNOME
automatically looks up and grabs the 48px size PNG file, if available. Try it
now and you'll see what I mean. As long as you install the icons to the correct
directories using the correct format, resizing PNG icons in the panel is not a
concern.

You should not use the SVG of the icon, it will not be pixel-perfect, the
rendering library GNOME uses to render SVGs is slow and buggy, and it isn't
standard practice to use SVG icons. You should instead use the provided PNG
icons. 

If you need help, please refer to the "Directory Layout" section of the GNOME
Icon Theme spec: http://library.gnome.org/devel/icon-theme-spec/  

I do believe what this will involve is installing the appropriate icon to each
of the following directories: 

- /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16 
- /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22 
- /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24x24 
- /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32 
- /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48

I don't know if the gnome-icon-theme provides input-method icons but from my
perusal of the directory it appears not. I do not see any icons for this
mentioned in the freedesktop icon spec either:
