Posted 619 days ago 18There are only THREE icons in the download and only PNG – NO AI files.
Also – If these are from Iconshock — I can’t find them on their site.
Searched everywhere for detective icons.
I realize this is a freebie – so can’t complain. But I’d be HAPPY to purchase the User icon … if I could find it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Posted 744 days ago 16Very nice icons. But honestly for me, many icons with red pockmarked will be seen better without those red pockmarked.

Posted 753 days ago 15These are really nice icons you have offered us for free! The only thing which prevents me from downloading and using them is the splash of red. I think it has ruined them for me and I think many other potential users of your icons.
The red splash reminds me of blood and of violence or sadness, and I won’t use them for that reason. Websites should be fun and make one happy to be there don’t you think? It is just something to think of when you design something you wish to be used by millions of people. Make them feel happy.. you have them forever… make them feel sad they will avoid you forever.

Posted 756 days ago 13This Chris McCorkle is some guy! Why does he keep saying the same shit over and over again? I agree with the other comment, his insight is damn obvious and dull, and misses completely the point here. This is a free fun freebie that you can take it or leave it.
Need someone to talk to Chris? Feeling lonely? Although your thoughts and your picture give me a clue of why people must reject you constantly, I think spraying your obvious and useless knowledge in this forum isn’t going to give you any company. Leave us alone please.

Posted 769 days ago 7I think Chris McCorkle is just trying to show off with his comment. Come on man, this is a fun freebie… Nobody is going to use this set for an Apple Juice marketing campaign! Your ideas are also very obvious by the way. Just discovered hot water my friend?
Thank you very much 1st web designer for your marvelous posts and freebies, that’s why you are the best. This icon set is just awesome. It has such detail it looks more like a set you should pay for.

Posted 771 days ago 6Before you start designing your icon set think about where it’s going to be used. On the intranet for a small business where it will only be seen by a small group of employees? Or as part of a large company’s global branding campaign? If it’s the latter you need to be aware of cultural sensitivities. What may look quite clear to you may be viewed quite differently in another country. Cultural traditions and surroundings differ greatly from country to country. Microsoft’s brightly-colored squares or the iconic Apple logo for example, as well as being instantly recognizable, even in a small icon format, are safe images that are unlikely to cause offense or be misinterpreted by different cultures around the world. And if you use text in the icon, will it be understood correctly by someone in another country?

Posted 768 days ago 12I like your comment – I definitely agree with you – of course perfect icons will be so smart and thought through as you listed, but yes – this is a fun freebie and it’s free.
I think these icons could be used very well in web development or product based sites.
Chris and if you know so much about icons, why couldn’t you write a post about explaining How perfect icon should look like? Things to think about before creating icons?
