What Should We Include in Our Next Set?
Many more icon sets are planned for future free release here on WinePress of Words. We would love for you to leave a comment with your suggestions and requests as to what you would like to see included in upcoming releases. Also, feel free to link to your site to show us how you can make use of these icons.
Love these! Thanks for the awesome freebie.
You’re most welcome. As always, feel free to let us know how you were able to use them!
These are lovely icons. Thanks so much for offering them for editorial geeks like me to use!
I plan to use your CMS (Chicago) icon on my business web site because I follow CMS style for many projects. But I’ll wait to do so until you also offer an icon for the AMA Manual of Style* and for Scientific Style and Format: The CSE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers.**

Your fans may also want icons of some of the many style manuals found through the links at this page:

Thanks for passing on this information, as these look like some useful resources. The list especially is nice as it gives a better understanding to just how many style guides are available. We may have to release a 2nd edition of this set and hold a vote for which icons we release!
I vote for the AMA manual, too. And the CP (Canadian Press) style book.
Thanks much for these. I’d also suggest adding the Microsoft Manual of Style for Technical Publications, Read Me First (Sun Microsystems), Wired Style and Yahoo! Style to this group.
A couple other icon sets that might be useful would be a Desktop publishing/word processing set including Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe InDesign, Ventura Publisher, Quark xPress and Adobe PageMaker and/or a Graphics Tools set including Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo, Adobe Illustrator and Microsoft Visio.
How about The ACS Style Guide: Effective Communication of Scientific Information? http://www.amazon.com/ACS-Style-Guide-Communication-Information/dp/0841239991/
AMA style manual and also CSE style
Please consider including _New Hart’s Rules_, _New Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors_, and _New Oxford Dictionary for Scientific Writers and Editors_.
These are wonderful! I second the requests for:
AMA (American Medical Association) Manual of Style and
CSE (Council of Scientific Editors) Scientific Style and Format
Thanks!
Icons: add Recipes into Type, please
Thanks for making these icons available! Would it be possible to also include icons for the American Medical Association Manual of Style and the Scientific Style and Format (the CSE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers)?
Absolutely love these icons!
Lovely icons! May I put in a word for the MHRA Style Guide for possible future additions?
Best regards,
Gerard

Thanks a ton for utilizing some time to write
“Style Guides: A Free Icon Set for Writers
- The WinePress Blog”. Thank you so much yet again -Samual
It would be awesome (and quite useful) if you could include The Yahoo! Style Guide as well.
Scratch that. I just found it here: http://blog.winepresspublishing.com/2011/09/style-guides-2-a-free-icon-set-for-writers-and-editors/.
You were one step ahead of me.
