Icons for W8 themes

Post by hpl123 »

Hi all,
Here are a couple of icon sets that are well suited for the Aware IM, W8 themes. The 16x16 icons are a bit to big for these themes but the 12x12 icons is a perfect match (see below for example).

Here is a 14x14 icon set. The icons are not as good a fit as the 12x12 icons but OK i guess.

Update

Post by hpl123 »

Hi all,
This is an update. I have found Icomoon to be a good place for icons for the W8 themes. Icomoon consists of several different icon collections gathered together in a custom app. You can use the Icomoon app to resize icons, recolor icons etc. The optimal size for e.g. tab icons in the W8 themes is 12x12 and with the Icomoon app it´s easy to resize icons to that size.

Icomoon: http://icomoon.io/

PS: The actual icons used in the W8 themes can be found in one of the collections in the Icomoon app ("Iconic" collection).
