What is this?
This is a collection of icons of pictures of outer space gathered from sites on the Internet (without permission, but an infinite amount of unvoiced thanks - and hopefully any images I used which I needed permission for, the owner of the images will email me to give me permission, and FYI to all those interested out there, NASA images don't require permission in general). Mostly from: the STScl/HST Pictures , back when it was the Observatorium Image Gallery.
Please feel free to distribute the icon files for pleasure.
These icons are open source in the sense described at OpenSource.org . I believe in free exchange of absolutely all information, and I don't want these icons incorporated into a proprietary project.
These icons are best viewed in High or True color mode. There are 3 sizes within each icon. 16x16 will appear if you view small icons or list. 32x32 is the default Windows 95 or NT setting. These icons are best viewed in 48x48 format, which can be selected using IE4 desktop enhancement "use large Icons" setting, or with Microangelo Engineer, found at Impact software (awsesome program).
