Iconfinder | Search through more than 114,000 icons

I like everything, the design and the concept

First, I love the site. I'm a regular user and love having the site's few simple tools at my fingertips when searching.

However just recently I discovered the 'Browse Icon Sets' section of the site. I like how the Google-style homepage calls attention to the search, but maybe something else can be done to call out the Browse Sets section.

Like making a more graphical treatment below the search box?

Definitely a great start, I really like the logo and the drawing looks really good. I also must say this is a great idea, I will be using this!

I would, however remove and resize a couple of elements to achieve the clean look of Google.

The text below the logo could be a little smaller. Also the search button might look better if it had a hint of your colours of blue and green.

The links at the bottom seem to be a bit crowded so I would suggest moving or removing some of them, or at least re-styling the 'hosting supported by...' (for example align to the right and with a colour of grey).

Also I think to create a more spacial feel you should space some of the things out on the page, leaving a bigger gap between lines.

Overall it looks great, just needs tweaking a little and it will look really good.

I love the design. Really entertaining. Nice rendering. I want to go use the site.

I like that you decided to make the example terms clickable because they're popular search terms and you can save people time, but I think the size of the font contributes to a slightly cluttered look. Consider shrinking them and centering them under the box rather than the centering them in the body of the page.

I think the feedback about the browsing icon sets link being almost hidden in plain sight could be attributed to the fact that the logo and page design itself is so good in explaining what the site does. Because of that, people aren't likely to read the entire sentence "Search through 110,023..." it's so obvious that you can search this site for icons I don't need to read any further.

Perhaps if you shrink the text box (I doubt most users will need that much space for their search terms) and change the Search button text to read "Search - 110,023 icons" (or similar) you would have room to provide a "Browse icon sets" link next to the search button where it would be more visible.

The logo illustration is spot on. Did you do it yourself?

great site, very nice work. I Love how it displays the icons. and the slider for the sizes.

Congrats for the page.

I use this website a lot... Everything is very well structured ... :)

Hi I love this and think the little " i "guy is the cutest thing!~

I just noticed there is a bit to much space between the words "us" to "on" and "on" to "twitter". Also, to keep this little bit of type consistent. There is more space between the orange block icon to the word "get" then there is to the T blue icon to the word "follow". Also, the letters "i" and "c" are touching each other in the word icon (above orange icon block). As well as, in the word "design" the "i" and "g" are touching each other.

On the second page: Maybe try a different font, or lighter weight of font, a few points bigger for links of " Browse icon sets", "custom icon design" and "forum" ?

What does the type above the "Icon Finder" logo on page 2 say? It is way to small. Why is this icon not the same as on page one (due to that)?

Well, love the illustration, the eye reminded me of monster Inc. right away. If it was a different color I know it would not look like it came right out of the movie. Yet, I still love it and find it is applied uniquely.

I personally would bring the word "ICON" down lower to the word "FINDER" in your logo. There is too much space to trap the eye.

Overall, this is very lovely and it made me interested to see what this site has to offer.

I like it, other than a few little issues.

I would make the search button work more with the colour scheme of the site, at the moment it looks a little generic.

I would maybe also scale it down a little, not too much though.

Love the logo, and the design is very good overall.

I really like the robot. Can you make it a bit bigger?

great idea, and really helpful site thank you :)

I like it, expecially the logo!

The illustration is GREAT. and the simplicity of the interface is nice. You've simplified it so much you might want to take advantage of it and add some more whitespace.

Also consider showing examples of search results for your E.g. Under "arrow, search or twitter" it might be nice to show the top 5 icons for each search term.

Great bit of intelligent marketing by posting it on this site! :) as most of this community is your core audience!

I think it is one of the best logos i see!

I use this all the time. The design is simple and good looking and the functionality is perfect. Always get what I'm looking for.

Simple and well structured design. A search engine should be made like this :)

I love it. It's nice and clean and user friendly.

Superb piece.

I love the fact that it's so simple. The only thing would to make the navigation bigger :)

Pros: Original graphic, and cute. Good text colors and gradients. Cons: Need more vairance in colors for samples. Too much of just a few colors.

This design looks great, in fact, it looks like i would suspect when looking for icons.

The only thing that bugs me is the fact that you try to put everything so close together.

1- create space between the thumbnails on you second image

2- try to put as less as possible on the frontpage

That's it. Good luck with your great design!

Like it. Logo is cute and cool. It may muddy up the inherent value of the simplicity of the design in the long run.

Kerning at the Logotype, Buttons through out the pages can be refined.

search result is the strength point, I think Google will be jealous.

search bar is youtube-like.. needs change :)

I love your website! The simplicity is the best, just like Google - it makes your site stand out from other icon sites.

liked the element a lot

This is by far one of my favorites resource sites, I visit this website on a daily basis, good job, and many thanks for such an easy to use site.

Really Good....Awesome.... I dont have words to express my review for it :D

Really nice work

Specially use ajax technology in sub page very good. Simple and easy understand. This webpage is userfriend layout.

I like this design because i think is too charged, full...

Nice design, it reminds google quite a bit, but i love those kinds of design, you simply can't get lost, you do what you need and you easily find what you need.

Love the robot illustration :)

What an eye catching, cool graphic. I like logo and graphic. The concept is pretty clear.

I would just make the Search button pop more. Make it stand out more. And, if you can, add more space between logo, search field and footer information.

Overall it's a clean and beautiful site! But under the search bar of the home page, there may be better treatments to place the "Eg." text.

If there is more white spaces here and some of the texts are more subtle, it'll be better IMHO

I love this one, it made me laugh and definitely makes me want to use the product.

I think you'll get much closer to your goal if you add more white space in the first page. The result page looks great, with only one thing I noticed, the logo isn't that easy to understand. Maybe a detail from the original search page image would work better.

Beautiful work - you nailed it. Kudos for hiring turbomilk for the logo, I'm a huge fan of their work too.

I really think that it's a great start. I will definitely use this website in the future for my design needs.

I liked the site and the concept, some of the ideas already submitted might be interesting to deploy, but I wouldn't change much. it seems to answer what someone who landed on the site was looking for.

Icons are the gold dust of web designers, and google is ok for finding images.. but this I like..

I like it. Very clean, good typography and color pallet. I think it could be opened up a little more and give a few pixels here and there of space. But overall looks great.

From Usability perspective you have done a great job! Congrats on that. It's really easy to use the site.

If you can add search by "File Type" that would be great. Because sometimes you don't want certain type of files. If you can use checkboxes for this, that would be more usable. That way you can uncheck the file types you don't want to appear on search results.

One more thing, slider for file dimensions is not very clear from first look. Perhaps you can add a title to that? Size: or something.

brilliant idea! the web needed this, and i needed this. its so simple and does everything it needs to do beautifully... well done. It simply doesnt need to be over designed and thats exactly what you've done.

Nice design. easy to use. Good work.

the design is good as well as the drawing, the color goes great with it. cool.

I really worry about the little guy getting lost at smaller size

I really like the logo and colors. My only issue is that the transition from the search on top to the content search below is kind of awkward.

Very nice colors palette and concept, but the robot is too complex for a logo.

the twitter button in the index is too big. users attention is catch on this button. Ps: i love searching icons through iconfinder.

I love it. I love the concept and I love the design, I only find the license filter a bit confusing, maybe "Free for everyone", "Free for personal use", "Commercial" etc would be easier?

am glad to see this site !

But i think a gradient on the fonts "Icon finder" would make it stand out a little more! Great job!

Accept no feedback. this is a perfect design IMO.

The site works like a dream!

I loved the idea in the minute I saw it. I've been to the site and its easy to use and practical. I can't find any flaws and certainty will be using it.

Design is rock, userfriendly, eyecandy, everything is balanced.

Good desing

i love it, just perfect

Great work, I really like this design and I like the site a lot (I've used it several times before). The site is very useful to gather ideas and inspiration and discuss how to best represent concepts when creating icons. Also, the usability is intuitive and simple...

I guess a bit more whitespace on the home page would be great. It would improve the minimalistic feel of it. The results page is really great. Good job here.

Not much to improve. Perhaps adding some more white space and keep it clean.

I like the colors that you used and illustration. Looks like a great start!

I think it's very nice now. Wouldn't change a thing.

Helpful site and the sorting tools are a plus.

you want it to imprint on the brain and work on a small scale. simplify it. and perhaps concider lower case.

less green

This is a cool site. i will go here now.

I just like this on so many levels... I think the robot is really fun, the colours are perfect, usability is spot on... just a great job really...

I am very fond of blue-green combination so I instantly liked this one. And the Robot icon is cute too. :) No complaints or suggestions from me!

My Favorite Icon Search out there!

The main looks awesome. It is clean and simple. But the icons page need more work. I suggest you remove all those functions and make a drop box. Beside this, it looks awesome. By the way, I visit this everyday and use it for my designs. Awesome Site.

I've used this site a couple times to find the best icons for my sites. THANKS!!

My suggestion would be to allow for custom color picker for the background.

simple and perfectly triggered to target audience

just watch at the title tag, I've bookmarked on delicious xxx,xxx or browse yyy icon sets, probably next delicious bookmark will change its title and you'll lose rating.

First off, I use your service (actually just downloaded an image about an hour ago) and love it.

On the landing page, I just care about finding something.

Since you aren't marketing anything other than icons, maybe move the host info a little lower so it is less obvious?

for the logo to be a robot i think it conveys a lot of message that this is an icons site...but i think the only problem is the typography, maybe you can replace the "I" in the icon with the robot..i dont know.

this is an awesome site by the way, i use it alot! thanks for this!

love the logo

Homepage is nice and simple in the same style as Google but with a bit more fun. This is because of the robot image which is great by the way.

Results are good and I like the background filter which is very useful. Results page is very good.

The search results with plurals. When I search for "infos" i got 1 Icon, for "info" I got 139 Icons.

All in all a very usefull website, I will definitely use it :)

A very nice, simple design with a great illustration. Gonna head over there now for a proper look.

really like the logo and the drawing

Just that. I like it.

• Layout: I like that you want to keep it simple by making it Google-like. But I think you can make it quite interesting by giving it the homepage a proper design. Try giving the search box a background and experiment.

• Color Scheme: Go with a color scheme. The design of the search results' page is more like Delicious if the logo and search box is taken out.

• Whitespace: Give some whitespace. I'd take out most of the things around in the homepage as well. For example, the 'E.g christmas, twitter etc.' part can go inside the text field that gets hidden upon focus.

I've been using Icon Finder since day one and this is the best version so far. Big improvement in usability. Just find the funny logo a little bit too funny.

Love it but would (at the risk of messing up the sparse beauty of the home page) include more teasers/features on the home. More information about icon sets may be helpful. A random "peek" of icon samples may inform a user of what to expect. Licensing check boxes near the search field might help.

I liked the design, it is simple, like first page of google. I add on my bookmarks. Congratulations, it is a wonderful solid design.

Pros:

The design is straightforward, and it basically screams "you're here to find icons."

i like the idea, good luck

cool

Nice work :)

great!

I like this site! It is simple and easy to use. It also provide wide variety of icon. Nice!
