<i>"We get excited about things like scale, proportion, and shape. We are committed to design and quality in everything we do."</i><p>That would make more sense to boast about if they weren't, for the most part (entirely?), collecting existing icons and assigning groups of nouns to them.<p>Also, many of their choices are rather less than international. A <i>No-P</i> no-parking icon? "&#60;3" for love? <i>Really?</i><p>Otherwise, a fair little resource if you want a very standard icon in vector format. (Mind, you apparently have to download and decompress each one separately - I found no links for a collection.)

Pretty cool, such an project to make an international visual language. And even better that the icons are in SVG format, and can be freely used.
