A while back someone alerted me to a nice little collection of free (a.i.B.) icons at Famfamfam. The set is called Silk and release under an CC attribution license. I’ve used it in projects and personally like it because it’s massive (700 icons commonly used in modern web applications) and also includes a few meta-icons that can be superimposed on other icons (plus, minus, edit, play, stop, etc.).
Anywho, I was recently startled when everyone’s favorite Firefox plugin, the web developer toolbar, started using the icon set. I swear I keep seeing it around the Web and it’s starting to give me spooky déjà vu feelings. So someone needs to come out with a few more icon sets that break the mold—I’m thinking something with fewer pastels. Maybe black and white or Technicolor.
