I have been looking for a couple of days now. This must be the closest thread for my problem.

I would like to make my application shortcut widgets on the desktop smaller. Right now they are 96px and i want them to be around 48px. I want the desktop to have a more slim look.

I do not know which conf-file to edit. I have found my current themes application bg-pics. I am guessing that changing the size of these will not change the actual size on the desktop, right? Is there a global conf-file for these or is it localized for the theme.?

I am using the humanity-theme right now.
