This topic is a collection of links that hopefully will help you with your Game Maker creations.

It lists various sites that have sprites, tutorials, tools, forums, etc on them.

How can you help?

Simple! if you know of any sites that you think should be in this list (including your own), simply reply with its url, a description will help us sort where the link should go. Your url may be added to the list if a moderator thinks it's worthy.

Please only submit links if they have a lot of resources to use. Some people are submitting sites with around 5-10 images.

You can also reply if a link on the list appears to be broken.

Disclaimer:
The links in this topic are NOT guaranted to be free for your use. We (the staff on this forum) or forum host are not responsible for any action taken against you if used in your creations. The sites may have their own rules for allowing its contents to be used by you. Please read these to ensure they are safe/free to use.

http://www.coffeeshark.nl/webshop/index.php
Yes it may say webshop but there is still a lot of freely downloadable stuff there smile.gif

Icon Creation resource, however it has no Graphical User Interface. It converts PNG images into a format of ICO that is compatable with Game Maker. It is available for multiple operating systems, including Windows.
