Very nice recources. thanks.
Awesome collection. Some of them are realy stunning.
I think the Yoritsuki icons are only allowed for personal use according to this page: http://www.hybridworks.jp/apps/yoritsuki/
Otherwise, great post!
While these icons look great, there is something I don’t understand. How do you use these icons without the background that is in the picture? Most of the time, you want the icon with your own background, not the one provided with the icons-picture. Or do you need to be a graphics-expert who knows how to remove the background?
Can someone please explain? Thanks!
