Welcome to our annual Halloween make over! Every year we let the ghosts and ghouls out of their tombs and they somehow manage to take over the factory. We hope you enjoy the spooky look and feel and make The Iconfactory your number one stop for Halloween GUI goodies.
Once again our dank and dark Web’s Attic is alive with the links that will take you to all things spooky on the web. Our News Hell Hound has been pressed into service by throngs of zombies to keep the page up-to-date. Actually, that’s not true, she’s relying on all of you out there to send us your holiday related URLs. So if you spot an appropriate set of Halloween icons, a scary font, desktop pict or whatever, send it to us and she’s sure to get it posted in a single flap of a bat’s wing.
Watch for more scary stuff in the days ahead leading up to Halloween. You never know what’s going to pop out of the ground! Boo!
