After our previous (free) icon release was so wildly successful and popular with you all, we figured that it might not be a bad idea to do it all over again…
This time around, we collaborated with South African artist – Alex Latimer – to create a very unique hand-drawn icon set which is reminiscent of Alex’ signature drawing style. The set comprising of 24 different icons, should cover most of the social networks that you frequent regularly and the default icon size has been set at 64 x 64 pixels.
Here’s a preview of all 24 icons:
Now why would you use these icons? Well, beyond the fact that they’re very unique and extremely cool, Alex is already working on a more complete (approx 60 icons) icon set which will cover all of the “standard” web icons used within designs. So both sets will be in the same, distinctive style and you’ll have 80+ icons to use in your next design.
Download this icon set now!
If you’d prefer these icons without the sketchy dashes in them you can download this version (courtesy of Lorissa Shepstone).
If you find these icons useful we’d like you to pass them on to other who you think might appreciate the set. The URL to share is: http://camp.woothemes.com/2009/07/hand-drawn-social-media-icons/. Important: You must link to this article when sharing the Icons, you must not upload these files anywhere else.

love the different kind of icons. Especially love stumbleupon, digg and reddit. set of 80 icons would be awesome for sure.
Not that Im demanding more, but having small size icons ( like in this post, share & enjoy.. have smaller icons) will be more useful and will help increasing the popularity of this icon set. just my two cents.
These are awesome! Thx for sharing!
Like the icons. Nice job Alex.
Thanks to the Woo team for giving stuff away, as the masses appreciate it.
Really cool icon set guys i have been looking forward to this being released after the teasers you posted, thanks for providing these and dugg.
Fantastic icon set, really love the style these have.
As has been said before, thanks much for these!
Holy Cow.. Thats a Woo Wow !! Lovedém
Great icons. Haven’t really seen any like that.
Great set of icons. Something different!
Absolutely amazing style, nice to see something a little different than normal. Love them!
Those are fabulous icons! I really like the style.
I read the terms of use and was wondering what sort of credit needs to be given for the use of this set?
These are awesome!
Well done Alex and thanks to Woo for making them freely available
I love those thanks!
Very Cool Set! Love your work:)
Love them all!
Cool set, can’t currently think of anywhere to use them though!
The Reddit robot is so very cute.
Great Icons! any chance of a ember icon?
Fun set–can’t wait to work on a client site that warrants these!
Awesome! Thanks for the great icons.
Thank you so much. It’s always appreciated, these are awesome!
Glad you like the icon set. Youtube is my favourite icon I think.
With regard to making a smaller size available, and given the cartoon style of the icons, they may not look as nice and sketchy at 16 X 16 pixels. Of course you are welcome to get your hands dirty and resize them yourselves in Photoshop.
Emberapp is still relatively new, so for now, we probably won’t include it…
It used to be quicksnapper which is quite old!
