I am developing a file library site and I need some good icons to indicate the file type that the search results find.

I have googled the hell out of "icons, filetype icons" etc and found some that are decent, but all of the good ones want some $$$.

Yes I know, people need to be rewarded for the hard work they put into devloping anything, but I'm on a tight budget here :P

I need icons for:

.pdf
.doc
.mpg
.htm
and some kind of tutorial icon.

if any of you have some good icon resources, I'd love to hear about them.

thx,

Burr

If 16 X 16 is big enough, check out famfamfam.com I use the 'Silk' collection quite a bit. I know it has icons for PDF, XLS and DOC, and I'd imagine for the rest of what you need as well.

They're free as well.
