Posted by Wednesday, February 6, 2013 , ,


There are hundreds if not thousands of social media icon sets online that a designer or anyone looking to publicize their social media accounts can use. Today, I wanted to recommend this bundle by Picons that I have been using for my projects. The set includes the most recent icons for Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest and beyond. The icon bundle comes in a variety of raster (.png, .psd) and vector (.ai, .eps) file formats which makes it customizable to any color or size for web and print. Did I mention that it is FREE to download?!

Add this to your graphic designer's toolbox today and you will never have to scavenger the web looking for a set of social media icons. Picons also offers other premium icons for designers that are affordable and worth checking out for your other projects. Be sure to visit the site [here] for the download.
