Are icons from http://iconfinder.com/ free to use?

+3  A: 

From the site's own disclaimer page at http://www.iconfinder.com/about/disclaimer :

Always check the license before using any icons and contact the author before using any icons commercially.

Commercially - like sell them? I just usr them at website, to make it a little nice to look. I do not sell them and do not use in any products to sell with.

Generally "commercially" is interesting to the creator/owner if you're making money with them somehow; regardless of whatever definition of "commercial" is used. :)
