Awesome and extremely useful! I appreciate it a lot.
- 3June 18th, 2009 9:55 am
This is great! Thanks for the set of icons.
- 4June 18th, 2009 9:58 am
Nicely done Andy. Can you explain what your process was in selecting which icons to design?
- 5June 18th, 2009 10:10 am
Thank you all. I appreciate your kind words.
@Chris Wallace
No process – I’ve started with a home and then one icon led to another. I still have other drafts which were left behind.
- 6June 18th, 2009 10:16 am
Thank you! Excellent for my new project!
- 7June 18th, 2009 10:17 am
Oh yeah! Great icons and very useful.
Great job! - 8June 18th, 2009 10:31 am
Fab..u…lous!

Love the icons.
Social ones are nice. Would you it on my blog.Thanks
- 10June 18th, 2009 10:52 am
Another set of boring icons. How many Home icons do we need?
- 11June 18th, 2009 10:57 am
nothing special, but cute.
not sure that it should be on the SM.. - 12June 18th, 2009 11:00 am
Would be nice to get the .eps files for these icons to match them to anything we need to fit them to. Change colors, bigger size… blend them. Whatever.
- 13June 18th, 2009 11:03 am
Ah, I wish there could be a good 16px*16px file type icon set (PDF, ZIP, …) in the same vein.
- 14June 18th, 2009 11:04 am
nice, thanks for the icons.
- 15June 18th, 2009 11:09 am
Awesome! Many thanks.
- 16June 18th, 2009 11:27 am
The icons look awesome, thanks so much :)
I have one question: I am taking part on a design contest from a paid forum software. So, the design that wins will be shipped as a 2nd default skin together with the paid forum software. Am I allowed to use the icons in the skin I create for the contest?
And am I allowed to mix & edit the icons for this purpose?
Thank you,

Thanks for another great icon set!
- 18June 18th, 2009 11:50 am
The first icon is ugly, but the rest is awesome!
- 19June 18th, 2009 12:07 pm
great icon set, exactly what I was looking for
- 20June 18th, 2009 12:24 pm
really nice freebie set

wow amazing love these icons
- 22June 18th, 2009 12:36 pm
Now this might make up for the last two crappy posts… thanks SM
- 23June 18th, 2009 1:06 pm
Thank you!
- 24June 18th, 2009 2:12 pm
Sorry, must have required some work… but it results in a huge “déjà vu” impression…
- 25June 18th, 2009 3:09 pm
Well i like *really* most of your posts a lot & most more interesting than any other on net, but what are those icon-posts for? You really can’t use them in my mind.
Else, best work, smashes!
- 26June 18th, 2009 3:55 pm
Thank you kindly~
- 27June 18th, 2009 6:27 pm
After so many icon sets, they all seem to blur together…
- 28June 18th, 2009 6:43 pm
I cant find anything better than these set of icons.
- 29June 18th, 2009 7:01 pm
Thank you!
- 30June 18th, 2009 7:31 pm
Awesome

very useful icons
thanks
- 34June 18th, 2009 9:11 pm
excellent! Thank you,
- 35June 18th, 2009 9:27 pm
No… Not so good. Blurred, seen before and plain bad icons. Difficult to use… Not really worth the bother…
Thanks SM though… This is just a slip?
- 36June 18th, 2009 10:37 pm
Thank you!
- 37June 18th, 2009 11:39 pm
Thanks a bunch Andy for this effort!
I’m going to use it on my next project. - 38June 18th, 2009 11:46 pm
I’m glad you like it guys and thank you for your feedback (both positive and … not so positive) :D
Cheers!
- 39June 18th, 2009 11:52 pm
Nice Icons Thank You
- 40June 18th, 2009 11:56 pm
nice one. quality!
- 41June 19th, 2009 12:30 am
Nice icon set – useful in a wide variety of project. And on top of it, it’s free.
I really think that when commenting on freebies, people should drop a line with ‘good job’.
Before posting comments like ‘where could I use this?’ or ’seen better/this before’ you should take into consideration the work it’s been put into making this set of icons. Free icon sets are a tremendous help for programmers who don’t have the skills to easily create icons or for designers who don’t have the time to make them.Again, Andy keep up the good job ! And thanks!
- 42June 19th, 2009 12:41 am
Good Work Andy!
Too many inconsiderate people in this day and age :(
Keep up the great work!
- 43June 19th, 2009 12:43 am
Thanks Andy for icons…these all are added into my collection.
Designers always Love Free Icons. - 44June 19th, 2009 1:19 am
Thanks! Very nice!
- 45June 19th, 2009 1:26 am
@Jonas – can you point us to the free set of icons that you have designed please? I would love to see your work as it must be excellent to give you the moral high ground to criticise others.
Can’t believe people put in the effort to moan at a free set of icons. Don’t like them – don’t use them, but have some manners and stay quiet.
@Andy – thanks for putting in the time and being generous with your work. I am sure all reasonably minded people appreciate it.
- 46June 19th, 2009 1:57 am
Very nice icons, thanks for sharing :)
- 47June 19th, 2009 6:08 am
Wow, these are great! Thank you!
- 48June 19th, 2009 6:24 am
Very nice, but why does the Flash icon use the old Macromedia logo and not the new “Fl” abbreviation like the rest of the Adobe software?
- 49June 19th, 2009 6:33 am
@Ashburton – I think that the icon with the old shape is more relevant than the simple FL.
- 50June 19th, 2009 9:22 am
This is the icon pack I’ve been waiting for from Smashing. Something simple, clean, and usable in multiple situations.
- 51June 19th, 2009 4:16 pm
Thank you! Very appreciated – nice work!
- 52June 19th, 2009 5:43 pm

Любое искусство, особенно нетрадиционное, всегда вызывало ожесточенные споры. Думаю, оно просто имеет право на свое существование, вот и всё!
