I'm more of a programmer than designer so forgive me. I am looking to sharpen my UX design skills though.

I found plenty of websites that give impressive sets of glyphs and icons, but I've been looking for one that has eluded me for days and it seems really simple. I need a simple white flag icon, but more than just 2 rectangles also. :)

Something like this but a little more refined:

Any ideas where I can find one or perhaps convert the above to something that would fit into a Glyph set like this (http://www.icondeposit.com/theicondeposit:24)?

Finding: this should be the easiest part, there are so many free icons on the web. I found this free one on iconfinder in seconds:

For converting: the glyph set you linked has the PSD file included, so matching it should be easy by copying and applying the layer style.

So you should have everything you need, but for the future, if you need an icon to match the set you have perfectly, why not ask the designer of the iconset? I am sure he would be glad to help you for a small fee.

Thank you for your answer! I didn't know about iconfinder, but it's amazing and is probably the best thing to come out of this question. I know there are many, but do you mind recommending 1 or 2 other similar resources that you use? Greatly appreciated. – user15872 Dec 8 '12 at 16:36
