Looks cool. I think that Ironman's mask is copyrighted, thou.

Nice! Reminds me of this Wikipedia article about this type of artwork that was posted to HN a while back:

Different styles, though. This artwork mostly uses hard outlines, whereas your link uses just filled paths (which by the way makes them easier to scale).

Scaling outlined or ruled art is a bitch.

Not quite, these here have more shading, stronger lines, different people style, ...

These are all about one tech design trend behind Corporate Memphis.

Nice to see this is actually open source (libre/free) under an MIT license [0]. I like these icons a lot, very well done.

I don't think these are intended to be used as icons, and the overwhelming majority of them would not fit that purpose.

This is “Clip Art”, not icons.

Also more of the “Corporate Memphis” style.

Thanks for sharing! This is a super useful pack.

I was expecting a bunch of Facebook Alegria abominations, but I’m pleasantly surprised that’s not the case. Thank you for this!

Is "clip art" an unfashionable term now?

kleer001vor 5 Jahren

Everything old is new again, and again, and again, and again... then, 40 years later (roughly 2 human generations) again and again...

Just for fun I looked up the history of clip-art :

It's not quite as technical as I'd like, but a good overview :)

I tried looking at your book website but the certificate is expired and wouldn't let me in with my old browser. I was able to on a newer browser by accepting the risk, but thought you should know.

I think the conditions for a "unsplash.com/deathtothestockphoto.com" will soon come for illustrations as well.

How does one learn how to make these? I really like them!

I can see a use for these in my projects. I bought the dude a coffee (3 USD). We should support creators like this, else they will fade away.

Seems nice, and it's great that it's open source.

Minor comment: the first COVID examples show two thermometers with 90° , which I guess is Fahrenheit. > 95% of the world population uses Celsius, so this seems a bit USA (and Liberia, etc.) specific (unless you try to boil water). :)

> 95% of the world population uses Celsius

Not for body temperature. The author is Indian and most Indians still use Fahrenheit for body temperature.
