Source for all Windows Phone standard application bar icons (like select, etc)

Question

Windows Phone 8 SDK comes with a set of the standard icons one can use in WP apps (they can be found in C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft SDKs\\Windows Phone\\v8.0\\Icons\\ ). However, I could not find the standard 'select' icon used everywhere in the WP interface in this library:

Is there a public and free source to get this and other standard application bar icons?

Note that in fact this icon is not a monochrome picture I can grab if I make a screenshot of the existing application bar; this icon contains semi-transparent pixels and it is optimized for scaling for WXGA and 720p WP screens though its original size is just 48x48.

Answer 1

I could not find a ready-to-use icon lib in PNG format, but there is a 'workaround', when we can prepare the required icons ourselves. This can be done in a free vector graphics editing app Microsoft Expression Design using high-quality images from a free online graphics lib like http://modernuiicons.com . The site also has a tutorial of how to do that.

However, it would be nice if we could use exactly the standard images the OS itself uses. I think, the whole WP developers community would only benefit if we could use those standard icons without preparing their surrogates manually.
