How big is it? Can you show a screenshot, cuase here it's just proportion to my eyes. I am using it as my file manager in xfce and kde 4.2

sure this is the link.
i took a screenshot with both thunar and nautilus open just to show the comparison.
i use gnome but the case is the same with thunar even in xfce DE

OMG, It's really huge, mine is not even half of that size. Sorry I don't know the solution. I look in the thunarc but can't find anything about the toolbar setting.
Are you sure it is just thunar behaving like that. I opened gnome,kde and xfce and all are showing the same thunar toolbar size
Just a guess, can you try using another icon theme?

yes only thunar is giving such huge icons.
i tried a different icon set and still nothing.

NO problem, have you done an update lately? There is an update today why not try might address the problem.
I had a problem with xfce login yesterday and today, I have to login twice before I can get in and was address in today's update.

I am an ubuntu user, that have the same problem.

There seems to be a problem with Gnome and Thunar. I do not know what, but it seems not to be very important to the developer.
