Using Picons

Can I modify the icons?

Yes, you can change the size, color, orientation and even shape, but this does not allow you to sell or license them to others.

Can I make my own web font with Picons?

All our icon sets include Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files. SVG is an XML-based vector image format for two-dimensional graphics with support for interactivity and animation. You can make your own custom icon font using included SVG files. Software for making fonts is available online and is free. Read our tutorial on how to create your own icon font.

How can I use the CSH files included?

For those unfamiliar with the custom shape toolbar in Adobe Photoshop, it allows you to insert a vectorized shapes with just a click. And it is not just fast, it is also a convenient way to have an overview of your icons. All ourĀ iconsets already come with the necessary Custom Shape files (.csh). Read our blog about CSH files in Photoshop.

How can I search through all the icons?

All our icons (filenames) are tagged with keywords that they are representing. We suggest you to use Iconjar, which is a free Mac OS X app that helps you organize, search and use icons the easy way. All you need to do is to import your Picons SVG files into Iconjar and then you can search for the icons based on keywords. Read more about searching for Picons with Iconjar.
