SomethingToChatWith Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 So I'm done with a really nice app that needs a little icon love and maybe a theme I guess to make it look nice. Since I'm not really a designer I've kinda thrown together a logo for it and a background for its forms so it doesn't look too dull and plain using office and stuff At the same time I don't want to get into any trouble using icons in my applications off the net because the app has the potential to be used by others than just myself should I decide to release it. If I do however it will be completely free. So what I'm basically looking for are any free toolbar sized icons for menu commands and application buttons and maybe some good background ideas or links to open source software to do the task.

SomethingToChatWith Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Google... I've done some searching but the stuff I have found have had icon sets stuck together in a single jpeg or come out crappy when I try to turn them into individual icon files. Recommend any letmegooglethatforyou searches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digip Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I make my own icons using the Axialis icon program. Its the same program used for creating the windows and mac OS default icons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
