    They don't release them as individual files - you can get an Illustrator style contact sheet which is worse than useless

    Ah ... point taken .. you just want an end product you can bung in somewhere ...

    Hmm... Installed inkscape yet ?

    They normally have a high res JPEG with the icons as well ... but again by the time you spend 1 - 2 hours extracting resizing and so on ... it gets quite expensive in terms of your time.

    If you have the time to sort through it, deviantart is an absolute treasure trove. Here's the link for the icon search results;

    browse.deviantart.com/?section=browse&order=9&qh=&q=icons

    (I have a lot more which I can post once I get to "can post links status")

    I'm curious if you can guarantee the sources of the icons there and them being freely usable on your own sites ?

    No sir! I can't guarantee anything on deviantart, but if you see anything you're interested in then you can check the usage terms.

    Since a client received a letter demanding 2K for images they had supplied me with ... I just tend to worry about these kinda things

    At least if I've a purchase receipt or I've made the icons myself I've got some come back
