“Super Icon Pack” for your downloading and development pleasure.

I have scowered the internets for a while now collecting the best .png icons I could find. I use icons a lot in my site development and I always love having tons of them on hand. The only problem is, most of the packs I have found only have 10-15 icons in them and 2 or 3 that are useable.

I have gone through hundreds of packs and deleted all of the crap, only to be left with the best icons I could find. They are organized by size and are all transparent .png files which makes life very easy. There are 1494 total icons in this super pack.

As a bonus I threw in all of my “Social” icons as well because I know how much we all love to be followed. Below are some examples of the icon styles.

Large Icons (186)

Medium Icons (629)

Mini Icons (505)

Bonus Social Icons, All different sizes (174)

The ability to easily bookmark or share content on popular social media platforms is now a must have feature for web sites. It’s also important that this feature isn’t over looked by web site visitors. So it’s always a good idea to use icons when linking to social media sites. They get peoples attention and the logos are immediately recognizable.

I’ve taken the time to round up what I believe are the best free social media icons out there.

When designing a web application, it’s important to make sure the user interface is easy to use. Using icons along side navigation links is one key ingredient to achieving this. But Instead of creating icon sets from scratch, which can be very time consuming, why not use icons that have already been created for you. Here are some of the best icon sets out there for use in web application designs.

Icons come in many different sizes and styles. Some are flat and solid colors, while others can be very detailed. Icons in web design are often used to enhance content and navigation, but the ones in this post are so detailed that they could easily stand alone as beautiful works of art. So if you plan on using these, be careful that they don’t steal the show.
