Icons
These icons can be used to depict various microformats in webpages or on the desktop.
Creators
Accessibility
Publishers are advised to ensure that these icons are used in an accessible fashion, by including suitable "alt" attributes.
Icon designers are reminded that inability to distinguish between red and green is the commonest form of colour-blindness .

Icons
Web
A first effort has been completed by Wolfgang Bartelme and Chris Messina to create a series of web-friendly icons and buttons for microformats.
General
hAtom
hCalendar
hCard Add
hCard Download
hResume (button)
rel-tag (button)
XFN (button)
Comments:
- Hober pointed out that bright green seems to be a common color for [eventful.com/images/skin/ical.gif ical chicklets]
- Tantek wonders if the rel-tag button is useful
- ChrisMessina suggest a need for a small 10x10 tag icon
- Tantek wonders whether we need an hCard Download icon -- since it focuses too much on the "pipes"
XFN
rel-me
rel-friend
met
rel-sweetheart
met
rel-colleague
met
Comments:
- Tantek: wonders if a rel-me icon is necessary or appropriate; perhaps something indicating "facets"?
- ChrisMesssina: rel-me is useful in blog posts where you link to other posts that you've written
VoteLinks
vote-for
vote-against
Comments:
- Steve Ivy: I don't have a good icon for vote-abstain. Recommendations welcome. These are also a tad large to site next to links, perhaps?
- Andy Mabbett: Is +1/-1 a common way of representing voting? Would ticks and crosses be better, or thumbs up/ down (or horizontal for abstain)?
- Steve Ivy: I rather like the icons used by digg for voting on comments, but cannot use them for obvious reasons. I'm no iconographer to be honest, but if someone were to create thumbs-up/thumbs-down icons I'd use them instead of these.
Mac
These icons can be used for folders or files on your Mac. You can use a tool like Pixadex for managing and applying them.

PDF & SVG
This logo looks pretty much as first icon of Chris’ set. You could open it in any bitmap or vector editing tools, such as Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator.
