Vector Social Media Icons

Back in June I began redesigning my website. After searching a gazillion websites for some cool social media icons, none of them were quite what I was looking for so I decided to create my own.

When I showed the amazing people of dribbble what I was working on, many of them asked for me to release these as a set. I was surprised at the response they got so I opened Illustrator and started working. After a full weekend of research and pixel pushing, I had accomplished a set of 55 delicious vector social media icons.

My initial approach was a bit different than most social media icon packs I’ve seen or used in the past. The goal was to create an icon set that could be used as a tool, not just for one project, but for many projects to come. I also wanted to make them as simple as possible in case the designer would want to use the logo by itself, and not be confined to the circle. I mean, let’s face it – circles don’t go with everything, right? My second goal was to make this available in multiple formats so that the designer can choose whether they want to work in Illustrator or Photoshop without losing the ability to scale the icon to any size.

Creating the set was the easiest part, the hardest one was to contact each and every company to make sure that I had their blessing to release this set. That was fun!

After a few months, we feel that it’s time to take it to the next level. We have been working on an update that will include a lot more icons as well as multiple shapes & variations, not just circles.

For now, we gave our page a little face lift. We hope you like it.
