Place to download Smartsheet friendly icons/picture
Does Smartsheet have a library of icons (arrows, dividers, etc.) that can be used on dashboards? I have been creating pictures in powerpoint and saving them, then uploading. Would be easier if there was a set group of Smartsheet icons that I could pull from.

Hi @Peter Rousseau !
Our team uses Material Design icons to help align with Google's style: https://material.io/resources/icons/?style=baseline
Another good one is iconogram: https://icongr.am/material
or Font Awesome: https://fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery
We also use https://emojipedia.org/ for additional characters for drop down lists or symbols.
Cheers!

These are fantastic! Thank you!! All are now bookmarked.

Hi all. I have a question on this. Do you copy the URL of that icon and add it as a web content widget on the dashboard? My dashboard returns an error back that it could not embed.

@Chris Mondeau are these free images? Do we need to worry about copyright issues?

@Erin Kim I know the Material Design icons (from Google) are free for use, but you may need to check with the other supporting sites.
Often these assets can be used for internal use, so long is it's not part of a paid service you're extending out to your customers. I would reach out to the listed services owners to confirm, however.

@Y Barnard I usually download the asset or save as an image and then use that file for dashboards. Typically the url is used if you're creating a custom webpage or application and you can call that URL to reference the file without downloading. But in Smartsheet I often download.

Here is what i used, Hopefully this is helpful to you guys!!
I used the links below to make my own drop-down symbols (I replace the emoji code name in the formulas if used in place of Harvey balls).
Here are a few images to show you them in action.

While a little more difficult to use, I have found https://uxwing.com/ to have some larger graphics for dashboards.
The graphics can be altered to your companies colors and make things a little easier to see at a glance. I use GIMP for editing, but you could use almost any graphic editor to save them to a compatible format.
