Pictograms, icons, and illustrations help to synthesize an idea, a concept, an action in an image : they capture attention and complement the design of any project, whether it's a website, a blog, an ebook, a presentation, a magazine, or an app, while also giving it its own personality.
But how can you get these resources when there's no budget for it, and do it legally?
You can download icons and illustrations in various formats (jpg, png, pdf, eps, etc.) and in different styles to enhance your designs without having to be an illustrator.
