One thing we bear in our heart is that “Give and Take” is something more important than interests or all the things like that. It is just because you will eventually put your foot on the happy land, no matter what way you do for your own sake. Freebies are part of our doing it, doubling our joy and our happiness.

Today, we happily announce that another freebie baby just came into our community. Let’s check how it looks like.

Named as “iCandies” and inspired by MAC OS X and iPhone, this baby was born with a view to taking part in the world of modern and fashionable interfaces, embellishing your social media projects with a sleek and geeky style. Whether you are the Apple’s fan or not, this baby should be still a good choice for its contemporary appearance.

The freebie baby carries 60 icons in it. All the icons are taken shape in Round Rectangle and delivered in sizes: 64×64, 48×48, and 32×32 pixels. The formats are EPS 10 and AI.

You can use the set for any of your projects for free and without any restrictions. You can freely use it for both your private and commercial projects, including software, online services, templates and themes. Please link to this article if you want to spread the word.

Weekly freebies

Two years ago, we made an iconset called “Milky” for fun and released them weekly on Min Tran’s blog. Happily, it has been one of the most popular free iconsets ever. We received a lot of encouragements and compliments from the community. This success led us to start IconEden as a dedicated icon design studio. We think it would be great to make another great set like Milky. We already finished some icons for this set and they look as cool as Milky’s. Further details will be announced soon. Stay tuned!

So folks, take time to celebrate with us. Thank you.

Don’t we say that we love the blue birds? To celebrate this event, we’ve designed a tiny iconset called “Birdies”. Birdies is the set of 12 beautiful and lovely Twitter icons. All the icons included in the set have clean shapes and neutral colors so you can use it for various contexts, from a "Tweet it" button for your blogs to desktop wallpapers. The set is available in both pixel and EPS vector format so icons can be rescaled to any size while retaining their original details.
