Honestly, with the depletion of common sense nowadays, I cannot discern between sarcasm and seriousness anymore.

Sorry about the slight necro, but I really advise against using that. You'll not find any original work, and while using copyrighted icons usually won't even be noticed by the copyright owner, it's bad form - and if the icons are used in another BYOND game, it can get your game mistakenly classified as a rip.

My own suggestion is to go to DeviantArt or a similar site and ask around for someone willing to do free commissions. If you can't find anyone willing to do it for free, it's pretty easy to make $20-$30.

A bit of additional advice: Wouldn't ask on BYOND, if I were you - a lot of them will charge around $45 per icon, whereas the average DA spriter will only charge the aforementioned price range for an entire spritesheet.

Unless you use a site which has specifically ripped sprites off of copyrighted work, 90% of what you find is up there for grabs.

Some people just don't have that affinity for art, such as myself. No matter how much we learn, art just doesn't work with us; graphic art, pixel art, pen&pencil art, etc.

I went through both the Images and Sites a moment ago. Almost every icon sheet listed in the first 10 pages are from a copyrighted game. There are two I found that are not - they're from open-source projects.

Even so, my earlier statement still stands: "bad form - and if the icons are used in another BYOND game, it can get your game mistakenly classified as a rip."
