Cute little darlings scattered across the internet. From favicons in your address bar to folder icons on your desktop to an extra touch in the design of a website. Little visual cues – telling you what’s going on, what’s it about, or just where abouts you are. Who doesn’t recognise the blue and white Facebook ‘F’, or the Windows Messenger figure.

Even I’ve created my little pixel icons as part of this latest web design (let’s call it v01, just in case I redesign this at some point in the future), which if you really fancy you can download here.

Anyway, here are some free icon sets that I think are really adorable:
