Hi everybody,

Any graphics program should be able to create graphics like that. Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc...

You can download some here : http://www.ndesign-studio.com/resources/pixel_icons.htm

 

If you use more than 10, you must give a link back to the website.

That's a great deal and nicw quality too! Most icons of that type are not free.

They usually come in sets you download or get on disk for $150 - $350.

 

You can search google for free icons, free bullets, etc and find others that might suit your needs. Or as Bruce mentioned, any photo program can be used to make them if you have the skill.

What about simple button and symbol icons? I'm looking for stuff like the attached.

thanks for this great thread!

They look like simple Wingdings / Webdings type buttons, using fonts that come pre-installed on computers.

Marie! Thank you I did find a wingding font that has some of those buttons. Where can I get more wingdings? LOL Funny name!

This page seems to list lots of font places. Perhaps some of them have "dings".

NOTE: I haven´t checked all of those links but some I have visited before.

One other that I personally use very often is

Not sure it have any dings but worth checking out when needing new fonts.
