What is an Icon?

The word "ICON" comes from the Greek word "EIKON," which means image. Charles S. Pierce provided a semiotic definition of ICON: An ICON is a symbol that abstracts or simplifies the thing it represents. (Via What Exactly is an ICON?)

Below, I will share with you some Icon resource sites that I introduced before on Tianya Haige Web2.0Share and that I have collected.

IconLook is a pretty good Icon search engine. You can search for Icon images in the following sizes: 12×12, 16×16, 22×22, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64, and 128×128. Additionally, IconLook provides a Tag cloud for Icons, allowing you to search for Icons by Tag.
