Tabbed Icons

Hey everyone, I am horrible at design and have been looking for a resource to get icons (home, ?, photos, news etc) the ones that are free seem you have to make sure to include a link to them in your app. I was wondering if anyone has created their own icons that I could pay for or if there is a good source for icons that you can buy that you wont have to include a link back to the site?

No problem. Original is good, white icons are good for dark, black style menu's. Cheers, David

Okay guess I got another question. I am running the simulator and have 3 tabs, with icons that I have selected. However on the simulator I cant see any of the icons above the label?

Did you add the icons to your BT_Images folder in Xcode? David

Also remember 'Tab' icons should be monochrome. http://www.iconarchive.com Cheers! -- Smug
