So you have a blog and you Twitter, how do you put the two together?  A simple “Follow Me” graphic and a little HTML is all you need to convert blog readers to Twitter followers.  There’s no need to invent one on your own, there’s a plethora of ready-made graphics available on the web.

These are my favorite free Twitter Icons available online:

  • Randy Clay – 18 different icons to choose from.  Probably the oldest and most recognized icons for Twitter.  There’s something to be said for an instantly recognizable symbol.
  • Siah Design – A huge selection of both static and animated icons.  Many with transparent backgrounds.  The designer will also personalize one for a $10 donation.
  • VicentaBry.com – Thirty one different logos, each in two sizes.  Very colorful.  The site is not in English, but the buttons that have text are.
  • Icon Spedia – Only one, but it’s really cute!
  • Smashing Magazine – Only one, but we liked it so  much it’s the one we used on our site (with a few modifications)
  • Web 2 Icons – Simple square logo in 5 sizes – matching icons for many other social networking sites as well.
  • Productive Dreams – Small set of great Twitter icon graphics.
  • Janko at Warp Speed – Just two, but in lots of sizes, and cheeky.
  • Jason1234 via DeviantART – Some non-bird Twitter icons – a nice change!  I especially like the Twitter World icon.
  • Smashing Magazine – Fall leaves – includes coordinating icons for other social networks.
  • Dry Icons – a great social media set that looks like a sticker being pulled up.
  • Smashing Magazine – Designed by Mirjami Manninen, these are really cute.  Scroll down to find them beneath another set.
