Thank you very much for this. The website is amazing, UX is perfect and the content (the icons) is top-notch. I will someday re-pay you for this wonderful favor you've done to the community of designers like us, especially considering the fact that it's difficult to find good stuff without having to attribute the creator.

Thanks for the link. Here's 5 Gigabyte free ui/icons/psd interface. http://www.bypeople.com/

Adam this is awesome, the fact that you refunded people who had already purchased is even more awesome

Really great work

It would be awesome if someone made a vector font for these like FontAwesome: http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/

Fantastic work. The website is wonderfully crafted, and the icons are awesome. I really needed this. Quick question, where would one place an attribution to this work? I was thinking at the end of the about page in my application(s).

Looks great, quick question someone may be able to answer: in the license he says "[free to use in] any personal or commercial work...Do not redistribute or sell", which is fair enough, but does that restrict use in paid-for apps (such as on mobile devices etc)?

Bookmarked.

As a developer with 0 design skills stuff like this makes me feel like I can fully complete my work.

I personally appreciate the fact that you did this out of love for your craft and respect for the industry. There are too few of you in this industry my friend.

Thank you

I hope the creator of the icons is not upset by my forwardness, but I've converted these icons to bootstrap style icons for easy use. Visit https://github.com/chrismarlow9/Batch-Bootstrap-Plugin for the project.

It allows you to add the icons with pure CSS style (using rowXcolumn) class name. The CSS file isn't exactly small but I did this for the purposes of people making friendly names for icons and expanding on the project (I tried myself but I hate coming up with semantics for technical things. Anyways, enjoy. I simply used GIMP to Greyscale the image and invert the color to white. Transparent the image on your own (or maybe I will later)...

Good on you for giving your hard work away.

I would make a suggestion though to tighten up those pixels in the demo png, the half pixels are making most icons look blurry http://cl.ly/image/093M0z0z3a2W

Whitcroft is also responsible for Climacons (weather icons) which have become standard for many apps. #hatTip

I'd like to thank all of you for such an incredible response to Batch. It has far exceeded anything I could have imagined.

While I was asleep, a complete web font was made, a second is in the works, 2 CSS sprite kits were made and someone sent me a Photoshop CSH file.

I am completely blown away.

I'll spend some time checking these additions thoroughly before adding them to the Batch site.

Thank you all, Adam

Thanks!

Not to be picky about the punctuation or anything, but I would have thought a comma would be good here:

"Each icon is a single Photoshop shape layer, meaning ..."

Alternatively, replace "meaning" with "so"?

Thanks again!

This is an amazing set of icons. I'll make sure I use them and credit you.

Your giving this for free reminds me of the biggest problem Freelance artists/developers have : if one's a dev at heart, it's creating that fuels one's achievements. It's the fact that people are using the results. Problem is : how do I keep creating if I can't make a living out of it ?

And it's a hard one. I read so many headlines on HN which revolve around "launch a startup!", but never really do more than read them because of one single fact : i'm bloody not, and never will be interested by selling anything, be it cakes, code or my secondhand ipad.

I totally suck at marketing cause I totally hate practicing this art (of which i do not doubt the usefulness).

It's taken me 40 years to realize that : 1) i'm not interested in sales/marketing 2) doing it takes me down a path of depression every single time i try and i'm better of doing other things like building my own house (took me 3 years) or working in mechanics (repairing engines) 3) most important : there's no shame in not caring about marketing/sales and (therefore) sucking at it.

I had the opportunity to team with a guy who excels at marketing, and am able to code for a living full time while still living in a small village on a secluded island with a good internet connection. I truly hope you'll meet one of these ! Cause your work is insanely good.

Awesome! Would have paid for them. Donation coming your way!

"If you use Batch in a Dribbble shot, the inclusion of a “Batch” tag would be appreciated so that I can keep a curated bucket."

I'm far, far too old to understand this, any clues?

Nice work, but shame they're not in SVG format. Photoshop files are notoriously awkward to read for Open Source software.

Awesome 404 page. http://adamwhitcroft.com/gjhfjhg

I'd like this to be an icon font.

I was happily upvoting adam's new account, and then remembered that this is hacker news:

    var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a'); for (var i = links.length >>> 0; i--;) {if (links[i].innerHTML==='adamwhitcroft'){var j=i; while (!links[++j].id){}; console.log(links[j], links[j].click())}}

Here's a little puzzle - there is one trivial change that will change upvotes to downvotes. Can you guess what it is?

Very generous. I especially like the mit-ish license. I have this theory that permissive licensing will produce more goodwill and credibility. Hope I'm right!

Looks rather interesting. Does anyone have any experiences using tools like ImageMagick for batch compositing/coloring/modifying PSD layers?

Thanks a ton Adam! Any chance you can upload a set that isn't in Photoshop format (for those of us without Photoshop)?

Great effort, definitely bookmarking this.

Thank you. The Icons are amazing!

I love this, thanks.. but is it only me that wants a set of non cuddly icons for once? I.e. easy on the rounded corners.

Adam - If there was a way to share your address with me then I would be sending you some powerfully hopped IPA's!

Very nice job! I sent you a couple bucks.. it's not much but if I use them for something I'll send more :)

Nice! I'm a developer with zero illustration talent. Even if I never use these, I donated anyway. :)

I could see this replacing my bootstrap icons once this gets a CSS file.

I'd like to see someone provide a free alternative to Glyphicons.

Awesome, thanks for the sure. Looks great.
