Have I mentioned the best part that they're free? (I'll make this thread look a little more appealing after lunch..)
ICONS
- http://icons8.com/ - 55,300 free icons. Yes, you've heard it. They're free and although it comes with some size and copyright restrictions, you can use them offline.
- https://iconpharm.com/ - 9,900 free icons. This one allows you to do multiple edits to icons before downloading them, also useful for webdesigners as it has an html generator for the icons used.
- http://creativedo.co/FontAwesomePS - Fontawesome plugin right inside your photoshop, vector .svg format, I believe. You can resize these icons as much as you'll need to.
- http://www.flaticon.com/ - A really good web-based archive for icons.
- https://material.io/icons/ - A pretty nice collection of material design icons from google.
- https://thenounproject.com/ - A really rad collection of icon sets for all kinds of design.
- https://mariodelvalle.github.io/CaptainIconWeb/ - A single author created 350+ resizeable icons for your use.
PATTERNS
- https://www.toptal.com/designers/subtlepatterns/ - I honestly feel like hitting myself because I forgot to add this. It's an awesome site to get clean patterns from.
STOCK PHOTOS
- https://unsplash.com/ - Unbelievably HD, beautiful, free photos that you can use.
- https://stocksnap.io/ - A nice collection of HD stock photos all under CC0 license, which pretty much means you can do whatever the hell you want with it.
- http://nos.twnsnd.co/ - This one is really cool, it's basically a site dedicated to vintage-type photos, of course, you can use the stocks as well.
- https://pixabay.com/ - Don't you just love the CC0 license?
- https://www.foodiesfeed.com/ - YOOOO. DESIGN + FOOD. No seriously, this is a lot like food porn. There's a lot of HD food goodies in here.
RENDERS
- http://www.renders-graphiques.fr/galerie.htm - Mostly anime-related renders, this website is actually pretty good although their english counterpart url is dead, the .fr one still works.
VECTORS
- http://www.freepik.com/ - Although technically they do have a limit of downloads per day, they have an unbelievable amount of free vectors you can utilize. They also have .psds, backgrounds, photos and icons.
- http://vecteezy.com/ - Also another free vector archive, though a little more limited than freepik.
INSPIRATION
- https://webcreme.com - Design inspiration for the mock-up idea hungry designers.
- http://littlebigdetails.com/ - For your daily dose of design inspiration.
- https://niice.co/ - Just a lot of designs for every category you may be able to think of.
COLORS
- https://webkul.github.io/coolhue/ - Another resource to grab ideas of cool gradient combinations from.
- https://www.grabient.com/ - Grab a gradient, grabient. Get it? No?... Okay...
- http://www.sankk.in/material-mixer/ - Quite useful for mixing and matching colours for material design, ui/ux. A good tool for both designers and webdevs.
- http://paletton.com/ - If you were running out of ideas for color combinations, this one really can save you.
FONTS
- https://fonts.google.com/ - Honestly if you didn't know you could get amazing free fonts from this website, I'm sort of judging you a little.
- http://www.dafont.com/ - ALL DA FREE FONTS. See what I did there?
RESOURCE PACKS/WEBSITES
- https://designbundles.net/free-design-resources - Basically a collection of random resource packs, anything from fonts, logos, psds, vectors, etc.
- https://freebiesbug.com/ - A site pretty much dedicated to giving out free design resources.
- http://flypixel.com/ - Has a lot of free design mock-ups and flat designs.
- http://graphicburger.com/ - A lot like freebiesbug and flypixel.
- http://dbfreebies.co/ - A lot of the freebies from dribble and behance categorized into one website.
MISC.
- https://vgy.me - I personally use this imageuploader, it's lovely and all around neat.
- https://uploadfiles.io/ - I personally use this file uploader to upload heavy files such as .psds for clients, it automatically deletes your files in 30 days so it's a neat feature I like.
- https://placeit.net/ - It's a pretty cool website to place/edit any type of image into someone's hand using mobile devices.
If you have something you'd like to contribute, do post as well. This is my personal list of resources and there's quite a few more that I will add as soon as I remember them.
Dope and helpful thread bro!
