Sam_Brown Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 School website is in need of some updating and as I'm not the most gifted person when it comes down to creating icons \ images I was wondering if anyone here knows of any decent online repositories where I could find some free icons and images that would be useful on a school website. Thanks in advance Sam
Sam_Brown Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 Variety of things really. As it stands at the moment it's really just icons for the different subjects such as art, maths, science...
OllieC Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Well here is an example of some icons I was making for another member. Let me know if they would be any use for you. Otherwise good place to start would a google search for PNG Icons Wow, impressive stuff!
mattx Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 I always use Icon Archive - 26,000+ free icons, buddy icons, xp icons, vista icons, desktop icons, aim icons when looking for quick icons..... 2
enjay Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Thanks for the link, Mattx. I need to change a few icons on some of our pages too, and have always been wary of just Googling for images as you have no idea about copyright.
TornUp Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 wow... long time no post! saw this, and thought ":O.. i can help here" this is my icon resource: Free icons | Search through more than 100,000 icons | <--my first stop before i look ANYWHERE else! if you click the icon you can get a download link that leads to a nice transparent BG PNG file and it also informs about licencing(thats normally GPL) all the others i have are pretty much links from blogs i have on my RSS... after a small search iv found the following: Fresh Free High-Quality Icon Sets Smashing Magazine WooFunction: 178 Amazing Web Design Icons|WooThemes Freebie Release: Quartz Icon Set Smashing Magazine 80 Refined Social Networking Icons For Free | Web Resources | WebAppers 512 Pixel LED Icon Set 1300+ Free And Quality PNG Icons <--this one has 1300 icons, containing pretty much EVERY icon you will ever need! hope that helps? 3

Jobos Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 @SYSMAN_MK: how do you get the mirror effect below the icons? I've seen it many times but never knew how it was done.
