Hey guys!  I have some new freebies you can use for your blogs :)  I’ve googled a lot of social media icons and thought of creating my own set.  If you love shiny, detailed icons, then you will love these.  I hope to make a few more to fit a lot of design preferences so stay tuned for more freebies.

What’s the importance of social media icons?

The traditional way we used to spread the word about our blog posts is to actually go to the social website itself and post it as a status update.  It’s a bit tedious especially now there are as many as 89 social networks on the web.  Instead of going through them one by one, which I doubt even a crazy person would do, we have these social media icons embedded on each post or page linking to the social networks.  This way, not only we benefit from easily spreading the word, our loyal readers can also spread the love with only a few clicks with our social media icons.

Social Media Icons designed by z3olyte

Here are 11 social media icons in 4 sizes: 256 x 256, 128 x 128, 64 x 64 and 48 x 48.  If there are any icons missing that you want added, or have another size done, just leave a comment on this post or in my contact form.  This is set is meant to be given for free so enjoy using them on your blogs :)  And if you want, you can show me the website where you used them.  I love to see how it looks :)
