I'm looking for nice icons for my webapplications. Some of these applications are commercial applications. I want to polish them up by using nice looking icons, but where do I find specific icons/grafics?
Does anybody know a icon shop, that allows me to buy single icons for commercial use? Payable via paypal or credit card.
http://www.iconfinder.com has a lot of icons (with different licenses)
These two sites provide some nice icons.
http://dryicons.com - some free / some to purchase
http://www.iconpot.com/ - free icons
HTH

you can also buy them on www.istockphoto.com most are in packs but you can contact the designers by clicking their names and getting their details for single icons.
Did you know Visual Studio comes with a library of images and icons? See C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\VS2010ImageLibrary.
Visual Studio Image Library on MSDN.
A blog post, Tips and Tricks: Visual Studio 2010 Image Library.
Maybe you can find something useful there before getting out the creditcard. :)
http://www.icojoy.com/ Not my, but my friends. They can make icons to order if you want.
I finally found this site: http://www.777icons.com

May be this question is not appropriate for this forum , but i tried a lot on google but didnt found any good book for YUI3 for begineers except cookbook.
I need help, thats why i am posting.
I am looking for a good book or tutorial (except YUI3 library) that explains complete website development using YUI for front end and spring framework for server coding. It it includes a complete project like building any forum or e-commerce site , it will be very helpful for me.
Thanks, and apologies if i posted asked something wrong on this forum,
If you ever did some web project using jquery, I recommand the javascript Rosetta stone for documentation
The tutorials in YUI3 library are also a good way to learn the basics
However, it was announced that active development by Yahoo! would end. So it's up to you if you want to start with a framework that could be no longer maintained
For YUI3 there are some nice videos on youtube. Actually playlists by the YUI3 team members. They are good in understanding the architecture of YUI framework. Also if you google you can find a good book online named 'YUI3 cookbook'. That is also a good read. I am also new to JS and YUI3. I am also going to read JS book 'Javascript the good parts'.

I'd like to see which font is she using, but when I click on inspect element apparently the only font that I can see declared in CSS in Verdana and it's definitely not verdana.
Any hint much appreciated!
That's an embedded flash file. Web inspector returns only the fonts used in the html. You can do two things to find out about the fonts:
Download and decompile the flash file (there are many decompilers around, maybe a bit morally blameworthy to do this though?)
Take a screenshot of the site and ask in the DaFont forum about the typeface.
Normally I'd use WhatTheFont, but it doesn't identify this one, already tried.
You can't find out as it's all Flash.
Either...
1.) browse some popular font sites like www.dafont.com and find one that is similar that you are happy to user.
2.) email the owner of that website and ask them what the font is.
Good luck!
Take a screen shot of the font.
Submit it here : http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
And see what it says . . .
Or,
Ask here : http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/forum/

Joomla looks pretty good out of the box. Drupal looks very ugly out of the box and does not do anything, except for admin tasks.
Is there by any chance a n00b-friendly Drupal app that would look pretty (kind of like Joomla out of the box) and use a whole bunch of hooks so that I could see them in action in a relatively big app?
ETA: ok, let me ask a more specific question from the same area. Is there a Drupal distro/app that would have the same basic functionality and look-and-feel as out of the box Joomla? While I personally might not know enough about what functionality and look-and-feel would be perfect for n00bs, the popularity of Joomla suggests that it can be thought of as a decent first approximation. Conversely, the widespread n00b unhappiness with out of the box Drupal suggests that it's not a good approximation to that at all.
What about a customized Drupal distribution?
Managing News
Open Atrium
Open Publish
Pressflow
If you don't like how Drupal looks, you could always install a new theme.
If you want a nice looking Drupal App then you can try OpenAtrium (http://openatrium.com/). It's pretty cool. It's code is perhaps not for the beginner, but it shows how good Drupal can look and act!
You can take a look at the Examples modules - http://drupal.org/project/examples. You can learn a lot from these, but obviously they are no good looking Apps, just API examples.
You could look at the core Drupal modules (User module for example would be a good start)

Not a technical question lads but ive been looking for a set of icons for a room reservation thing that im working on.
theres loads of icon resources around the web alrite but is there a decent place to go for some quality free icons that anyone can recommend??
I usually go the IconArchive or famfamfam when I'm looking for some tiny ones. Both of the sites have loads of free to use icons sets.
I usually use either well-known an re-usable icon sets, or bespoke search engines to find specific icons (and preferably the whole set they belong to and their license)
Icon Sets
famfamfam
fugue
glaze
tango
openiconlibrary
...
Search Engines
http://images.google.com (always handy, w/ settings for "Icons" and "Commercial Reuse" if needed)
http://www.iconfinder.com/ (quite good, with direct links to the sets and authors' homepages)
http://www.iconarchive.com/ (also quite good)
http://www.findicons.com/ (not as good, but worth a shot)
The easiest approach would be to Google and do a image search for some related term e.g. "no dogs" or "cable tv". You get the idea.
Then simply grab all the icons relevant to your topic.
I like Smashing Magazine as a resource for icons. They have articles linking to high quality resources for icons such as this icon set.
Do a search for Creative Commons Icon Sets, these are free to use with attribution.
Seanau icons is great!
Want to free icons, I'm recommend Iconsfind.com

Apart from the web accessibility toolbar for IE and the WAVE tool. Does anyone know of any other tools to assist in web accessibility testing.
I'm also looking for a screen reader emulator.
There's a Firefox plug-in screenreader emulator called Fangs. It doesn't actually read the text and provide audio like JAWS but, it does show the text of how a screenreader would read it.
(source: standards-schmandards.com)
The Illinois Center for Information Technology and Web Accessibility makes a great Firefox plug-in called the Functional Web Accessibility Evaluator (FAE). It analyzes your HTML and finds potential accessibility problems. Coverage includes navigational elements (titles, headings, links, tables, etc.), text equivalents, scripting and even color contrast analysis.
They also have a beta version with ARIA support, and are hoping to soon start development on a Firebug extension.
Overall a very cool plug-in to add to your toolbox!
A screenreader emulator would be... a screenreader. Download JAWS and use the trial version.
I believe the jaws demo will run in 40 minute mode indefinitly but since I"m blind I had to buy the full version. For a list of screen readers as well as my opinions and experiences on them see this question
