However, creating your own icon collection can be nothing short of harrowing and of course time consuming. If you enlist the help of a web graphics designer, you will land up spending an exorbitant amount for the icon collection. On the other hand, you can get similar quality from stock icon sets available online for a fraction of the cost. A library of stock icons can include more than 100 images, sold in various file formats that are perfect for depicting the functions common to most websites and applications; for instance, help, copy, paste, lock etc. If you could not get icons that suit your requirements, you can simply contact one of these internet businesses and ask them to design specialized graphics for you; this is an immensely preferable option; simply, the original graphics artist will have the experience to hold on to some degree of commonality in all the icons in a series devoted to a particular theme. The next question that most people wonder about is whether they should choose the commercial images or go for free graphics, so here is some insight on the advantages of commercial stock icons vis a vis the free images: Rate: The price of an icon collection is to the tune of $100 and above based on the quantity of graphical depictions. However, free icon collections will normally have copyright concerns and/or you will need to use accreditations while using them. Size: High quality con sets are available in a variety of sizes, so although you pay for a singular image, you can get them in an assortment of sizes like 16x16, 24x24 etc; you can also get them in different states ;for instance, disabled, hot etc. But unlike these; free images can only be downloaded in a single state and size License: You may need to tackle some problems with the licenses that are free; you will not be able to modify the icons in anyway nor will you be able to use them as much as you like but with professional icon collections, you can use the images as many times and in any project as you deem fit. Usability: Good icon libraries will normally contain quite a few graphics to suit all your software and web graphic needs but with free graphics even if you were to manage to get fairly good graphics, these are very rare which means that it may be impossible to use them in your application creation and web designing. ![]()
