Description:
A small collection of 32x32 gem icons. These images have been taken from different CC0 sources with little or no editing on my part.
Sets that include additional sizes:
- 16x16: ETTiNGRiNDER
- 24x24: software_atelier
- 34x34: 7Soul1
Notes:
- Some sets include more icons than shown in preview.
- Images from sources other than 32x32 have been scaled by me, so they may not do justice to the original work.

I don't see my wonderful gems in this beautiful collection, I'm disappointed.
Of course I'm doing a great job! I would like to know the process you use to make these really beautiful designs and with an out-of-the-ordinary quality.
Do you have cc0 gems, luca?
Luca, if you have CC0 gems I will gladly add them. But looks like your gems are under other licenses.
To answer your question about the process I use, if I do any editing at all, I usually only do scaling & adding outlines.
For downscaling, generally what I do is get the color palette of the original image by converting it to indexed color. Then I will scale the image in GIMP using cubic interpolation. Then I convert the scaled image to indexed color & apply the original's palette.
For upscaling, I simply use the Scale2x filter (either in GIMP or using the command line executable) if the dimensions can be multiplied into 32x32. The Scale2x filter is kind of ugly, so I eventually like to manually touch up the scaled images to look nicer (see Chrisblue's bombs):
Original:
Scale2x filter:
Manually touched up:
The icons from OCAL (or any icons that come from an SVG or scalable source) are simply imported into GIMP. Then I duplicate the layer & merge it into a single layer again multiple times until all semi-transparent pixels are opaque. Then I touch up around the edges a bit, removing unwanted pixels, & sometimes adding an outline
I didn't see the license, you see what happens to be old and forgetful :D
It is time to release some gems and in fact it is also a long time since I put new material but I am trying to improve the freehand drawing technique a little and it is not easy at all.
