The Icon Search Engine
Have you ever searched for icons on Google Image search? Had any luck? No? Thought so. Google is not so good at searching for icon files. You might want to change the look of your desktop by replacing those drab icon files that got installed by default when you installed your applications (that image on the left is my icon for the photos folder on my computer). Or you might be looking for an icon for that new application that you just developed. This is where IconLook comes in.
IconLook is a search engine meant only for icons. It let’s you search on keywords and returns various icons in varying sizes (you can choose to filter the search by size as well). For every icon it also shows you the license information for that file. This allows you to see how you can use the icon file. Most of the icons that I found through the search resulted in open licenses.
There is also a tab for the most popular keywords, which allows you to not think too much about which keywords to search, and there is another tab which shows the most popular icons.
All in all a great little search engine (till Google steps in).
