However, creating your exclusive icon collection is anything but easy and of course a waste of time.. If you hire the services of a web graphics designer, you will land up spending a small fortune for the icons. On the other hand, you will be able to find the very same quality from stock icon sets sold online for a percentage of the price.

Utility: Professional icon sets will normally have enough images to cover all your programming and web designing requirements but with free images even if you do procure fairly good graphics, they cannot be found easily this would mean that you may find it very hard to make use of these graphics when designing applications or websites. ![]()
