Use of icons

When you include icons, take a few guidelines into consideration:

  • For contributions: Save the icons in your module's directory
  • For core: Save the icons in the /misc directory
  • Use Tango icons or Lullabot Icons whenever possible

If no icons exist, refer to the icon style guidelines of Tango. There is also a Lullabot article on making icons.

Note that you we cannot host Tango icons in our CVS due to licensing problems. You will have to download them from their site, install them yourself, and comply with their licensing.

Those icons are pretty

Those icons are pretty ugly... I am fairly certain that the Silk icons would be comply when included within Drupal, and they look far better:

tango is really not that bad, it's just a little square..
the famfamfam icons though are really, reaaallly REALLY great! I'm using the flags package on my own page, they are very elegant and the author has put them under the CC Attribution license so it should even be ok to include them in the drupal CVS/packages!
Kudos to Mark James!!
