Project Icon Set For Free Download
Over the last months we’ve heard numerous complaints about the lack of quality in our freebie releases. We are aware that our readers have high expectations and we try to do our best to meet them in our posts. In this post and in the following one we release two beautiful professional icon sets that will hopefully meet your expectations and will come in handy in your projects.
Project Icon Set
This icon set, designed by Navdeep Raj and released for Smashing Magazine and its readers, contains 18 beautiful icons related to project management. The set includes the icons address card, bar graph, calendar, clock / time, conference device, contact, documents, draft, mail, marker, milestone, notes, portfolio, project plan / gant chart, search / find, sitemap / flowchart, todo and user / resource.
The files are transparent PNGs, and vector Fireworks source files are included as well. As always, the set is completely free and may be used for any private or commercial project without any restrictions whatsoever.
Download the set for free!

nice
- 13April 27th, 2009 6:58 am
Complaining about free? Sounds like a bunch of losers to me… Maybe they should make something awesome others can use for free.
- 14April 27th, 2009 7:00 am
Nice Stuff…. Cant avoid freebies !!

@instantShift - 15April 27th, 2009 7:05 am
Nice!
- 16April 27th, 2009 7:06 am
GREAT STUFF HERE!
Thank you! - 17April 27th, 2009 7:26 am
These are great icons!
Does “no restrictions whatsoever” mean that I can use them in a template (e.g. template for sale on themeforest)?
(SM) Yes, of course.
- 18April 27th, 2009 7:59 am
Great, thanks.
- 19April 27th, 2009 7:59 am
Wow, amazing icons!
(apart from the search icon that kinda sucks – sorry!)
- 20April 27th, 2009 8:07 am
Nice. Very practical. (That’s a compliment, btw.) :-)
- 21April 27th, 2009 8:25 am
LOL, I’ll have to start licensing my surname!
Otherwise, great icons! Thanks! - 22April 27th, 2009 8:48 am
Thanks! Been looking for something like this. Smashing Magazine for the win!
- 23April 27th, 2009 9:23 am
Awesome icons set. Lets see much more of these kinds of icons, and much fewer silly acorn icons. The acorn icons are cool, but I can’t even guess at a site that would need them.
- 24April 27th, 2009 9:26 am
Milestone looks more like a gravestone xD
- 25April 27th, 2009 10:20 am
Look amazing. Thanks for the contribution!
- 26April 27th, 2009 10:39 am
Nice and useful set of icons. I should send an icon set too. Damn time, it is never enough.
- 27April 27th, 2009 10:40 am
thx for share
- 28April 27th, 2009 11:11 am
Thanks again these icons really nice.
- 29April 27th, 2009 11:56 am
Cool and very useful Icons. Looks like I was absent for a couple of days at SM. :P
- 30April 27th, 2009 12:18 pm
Super, Fireworks source PNGs! I learn so much by “looking under the hood” at talented people’s work.
- 31April 27th, 2009 1:09 pm
Really nice… Love it….
- 32April 27th, 2009 3:03 pm
Thanks guys.
- 33April 27th, 2009 5:08 pm
thq. really great stuff.
- 34April 27th, 2009 6:23 pm
clean and clear icon, great!
- 35April 27th, 2009 6:26 pm
excellent work Navdeep, i’m just working on an assignment for my PM diploma and these will add some appropriate flare to the dullness of the 9 knowledge areas :)
- 36April 27th, 2009 6:32 pm
One more time a great icon set. Thanks!
- 37April 27th, 2009 7:15 pm
Wow, these are totally awesome! :D
- 38April 27th, 2009 7:15 pm
Lack of quality?
Do readers have any clue how long even either the simplest wordpress theme or icon set takes to develop? Hours of time. And the designers are basically giving this stuff away for free.
Seriously, start IP banning all the idiots that complain about the quality of the freebies.
(Note: complaints about ARTICLE quality are still as valid as ever.. you guys have a reputation to uphold)
- 39April 27th, 2009 8:15 pm
Thanks alot..
- 40April 27th, 2009 9:17 pm
I love the set! Great works as always!
- 41April 27th, 2009 10:54 pm
Nice Collection Set
- 42April 28th, 2009 12:18 am
Very interesting set, but not all the icons have the same angle, and some of them like the Search, ToDo and User/Resource Icons are not as detailed and stylished as the other.
But I really 100% enjoy all the others (I love the James Bond Adress Card !) that I will definitly use in my projects.
It’s just my subjective critic, that I can give to another Web designer, we all need fair critics to improve and get better, day after day :)
Thx again ! - 43April 28th, 2009 2:30 am
Very nice. Thanks!
- 44April 28th, 2009 3:32 am
Thank you SM

regards

“Seriously, start IP banning all the idiots that complain about the quality of the freebies.”
That has to be the STUPIDEST comment I’ve read in quite a while.
- 60May 8th, 2009 4:45 am
Thanks.
- 61May 8th, 2009 6:10 pm
Cool Stuff…. Million Thanx man!!!!
- 62May 9th, 2009 2:40 pm
I had the same problem as flesh in comment #50. I appreciate this freebie, but it was provided in such a way that if you extract it in some XP machines, it becomes impossible to delete some of those files without some comprehensive method that I have yet to discover. If you have received many complaints about this and know a solution to be able to delete the files, please let me know about it.
- 63May 10th, 2009 12:34 pm
Seems nice. But feels that after the first 6, the quality and idea of those icons starts to fade.
- 64May 13th, 2009 8:21 pm
to post 1 and “we didnt start the fire” lol had to do it
- 65May 22nd, 2009 11:08 pm
Nice work Navdeep :)
Thanks Navdeep and SM - 66May 26th, 2009 1:51 am
nice work ;)
thanks! - 67June 12th, 2009 5:55 am
Very nice,…saludos from chile !
thanks! :) - 68June 15th, 2009 8:39 am
Like these very much !
- 69June 23rd, 2009 7:56 pm
having the same issue in vista, the files are not unzipping fully and then leaving partial files and folders which will not delete. Does anyone have a solution to this? Or can someone provide a cleaned-up version of the file? not trying to complain about a freebie, but corrupt files is a bit lame
- 70June 24th, 2009 8:06 am
Excellent resource!
- 71June 25th, 2009 6:06 am
Cool….,Coooler……..SmashMag…..
