Any recommendations for button icon libraries?

I'm not sure what you mean as far as wanting suggestions for a library, but I usually create a resource dll named the same as my menu and put all of my icons in it. It makes deployment much easier.

To be more precise, I'm looking for places to get pre-made icons to include in the resource file(s).  I'm not a graphic artist by any means, nor do I have the tools or time to create nice consistent looking icons for buttons.

Ah ... well, if you aren't beyond doing a bit of searching, I find many free icons through google images.

Just looking for some previously identified safe zones/  I'm a little hesitant to just go randomly wandering out into the 'net - I remember in the not-to-distant past where free icons were a common vector for virus distribution.
