I have used this site a few times :- <a href="http://www.iconarchive.com/">http://www.iconarchive.com/</a><br>they are meant to be free, most are some go off to pay for sites, but you can usually find ones you want.<br><br>

I purchased an icon pack from Glyphlab when it went on sale last year.<br>
Might still be cheap.<br>
<br>
Has heaps of different icons in all the required formats. Only has<br>
them in 16, 24, 32 and 48 sizes. I also own a copy of Axialis Icon<br>
Workshop which is great for creating icons. They include a number of<br>
objects which you can use to build up an icon.<br>
<br>
If this is software you are sellling, consider out sourcing the icons<br>
for that consistent and professional look. I use CleverIcons which are<br>
based in Australia, but I'm sure there are good custom designers in NZ<br>
as well.<br>
<br>
There are also a number of icon packs available that offer good value.<br>
IconShock and GlyFx are a couple that have a large array of icon packs<br>
available.<br>
<br>
Small images don't always resize well.<br>
