With so much of the early success of this blog being attributed to my massive RSS icons post, I couldn’t resist playing around with some Halloween rss icons for you. I think the jack o’ lanterns could work well, and I’ve done 2 different versions of a bat as well as just for fun. These are completely vector, done in Illustrator CS2. Again, use them as you want but don’t distribute them as your own. Include them in website designs, templates, whatever. A link back or blog entry would be nice. Anyway, here they are:

WEBSITE TEMPLATES
Finding good, free Halloween templates for websites proved harder than I thought. If you know of any good ones, please add them in the comments.

Mango

A Free Web Template - Halloween Pumpkin
Several other designs are available.

Free Site Templates - Halloween 1

Free CSS Templates - The Gathering
A decidedly dark template.

Rock-Kitty - WordPress Halloween Theme
2-column, Adsense ready Halloween theme.

Free CSS Templates
While not strictly a Halloween design, I thought the Web 2.0 style with the Halloween color scheme was worth mentioning.

STOCK PHOTOS
Here’s a few stock photos that could be used to great effect in Halloween-related projects. The last one is even a layered PSD with the crows already cut out for you.
