Good on you for giving your hard work away.

I would make a suggestion though to tighten up those pixels in the demo png, the half pixels are making most icons look blurry http://cl.ly/image/093M0z0z3a2W

Thanks dude. I used tinypng to compress the preview (as it's pretty large) and that can produce mild artifacting.

I'd like this to be an icon font.

That's in the pipeline - they take a fair amount of time to get right :)

How about a css sprite for bootstrap? A complement to the standard glyphicons would be awesome, and if you goal is to see Batch in many designs as possible, that would probably help (beautiful work btw)

Thank you very much for this. The website is amazing, UX is perfect and the content (the icons) is top-notch. I will someday re-pay you for this wonderful favor you've done to the community of designers like us, especially considering the fact that it's difficult to find good stuff without having to attribute the creator.

Thanks for the kind words! Attribution is optional, but always appreciated :)

Adam this is awesome, the fact that you refunded people who had already purchased is even more awesome

It would be awesome if someone made a vector font for these like FontAwesome: http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/

Great! I'm really fond of the idea of icon fonts and I'd like to use some of those icons on a web project of mine that I'm working on. I shall bookmark the link :)
