"Standard" icons/images

Is there a set of "standard" icons and button images, etc. that are
commonly used in wxPython (wxWindows) applications? The demos make use of
a number of such images (Open, New, etc.), but in general I can't seem to
find any .gif, .jpeg, or .png files for these. The habit seems to be to
use Mime-encoded versions in the code.

So are these image files lying around somewhere? Or does anyone know where
I could just grap up a set of commonly used such image files for UIs?

Take a look at wxArtProvder. It has some standard icons that it can provide at runtime, but not as many as I would like.

Otherwise there are lots of sources on the Web. I've gotten some in the past from www.coolarchive.com and www.iconarchive.com.

http://wxPython.org Java give you jitters? Relax with wxPython!

In addition to Robin's suggestions, if you are looking for XP/OS X style icons, there's a web site called Glyfx (http://www.glyfx.com) that lets you download and use their 'standard' icon package free of charge. It has the new/open/save & cut/copy/paste icons at least! For $180, you get their complete collection, which IMO is a good deal if you have the budget for it.

Which it appears is an .exe file (self-extractor?), so no opening that one on a platform other than windows.
