If I made an entire set of icons like the ones below, would anybody be interested in them?

1	2	3	4	5

They'd be of other microfossils (diatoms, foraminifera, coccolithophores and pollen) and sand grains. So, in the name of democracy, a poll:

Poll #1251433 Microfossils
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 6

Any use to anybody?

You should make more like number...

Overviews

18th Century Chronology - Includes brief descriptions of art and literature produced, scientific discoveries and political happenings of each year from 1660 - 1800. A very worthwhile resource for those interested in the little details.

Maps and Locations

England 1782 - A description of many areas and cities in England at the time in the style of letters. It gives many minor details of the areas that might aid someone writing fiction about the time to give a more local feel to the piece.

London 1827 - A searchable map of London and its boroughs at the time.

Birmingham 1783 - A physical and historical description of the city. Interesting if you want to look into a different British city than London.

Hebrides and North Wales 1773-4 - A travelogue of a man's journey through these two regions. Written like a diary, it gives a rather unique perspective on the entertainments and activities of the time.

Language

Slang Dictionary - An '1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue'. A contemporary book made available online describing the slang of the times including thieves' cant.

Leisure

Card games - Gives a description of the history of many card games as well as instructions on how to play them. Includes a number which would have been played in the Regency era.

Tobacco Culture - Covers gender, social class and more eclectic things like medicinal uses of tobacco in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Society

Beax and Belles of England - Memoirs of a prominent woman of the time, one Mrs Mary Robinson, which also includes biographies of two noble women. Written in the first person pov for the most part.

Newspapers and other Media

French Revolution Coverage - Clippings from several newspapers covering the events of the French Revolution as they happened.

British Reaction to the Revolution - An educational resource involving class questions but the contemporary sources included are extremely useful as they include personal letters as well as newspaper reports.

Revolution Artefacts  - Includes pamphlets, engravings, letters and a wealth of other resources from the time of the French Revolution. Really gives a fantastic view of the times.

Religion

Catholicism - Describes how Catholics were looked upon and how they worshipped in the 18th century when their religion was officially proscribed.

Theological Writings - 18th century writings about the Christian faith, science and, brilliantly, Athieism. The book actually starts on page 8. Worthwhile reading simply because of the topic and the time period in my opinion.

Law and Politics

Constitutional History - Describes changes in British law from 1760 until 1860 as well as a lot of the fun little political tiffs that happened during that time too.

Money

European Currencies and Exchange Rates - Covers the major European powers of the 18th century and is very useful as today's currencies are completely different to back then.

Inflation 1750 - 1998 - A rather academic resource commissioned by the House of Commons but still really quite interesting. The graphs at the end are most useful as an overview of how much the worth of the pound has changed over the years.

Cost of Living - This site gives a brief overview of what some jobs could earn as wages and an idea of what the price of some of the common things such as rent, clothes and booze could cost.

Farm Wages - A guide to agricultural pay and living conditions during the 17th and 18th centuries. Compares different regions of Britain to each other. An academic paper so does involve quite a bit of heavy reading.

Science

Botanical Magazine - Six volumes of an 18th century botanical journal. Gives a good idea of how scientific descriptions and herbals were done in those days. Also includes illustrations of the plants. Which is cool.

The Botanic Garden Part 1 and Part 2 - Written by Erasmus Darwin it's a scientific text that also includes a lot of poetry. Rather unique because of it.

Chemistry Experiments - Mainly involving quicklime and other alkalis. Gives a good idea of the state of research into chemistry at the time and the experimental procedures involved.

Zoonomia - Another book by Erasmus Darwin, where he attempts to pin down the common traits of animal life. Extremely methodical and thorough.

Medicine

Foxglove - A 18th century book describing the use of Foxgloves as a treatment for various diseases.

Food Poisoning - Both how to detect it and how it might be done. A fantastic book, if only for the chapter titles. Poisonous Custards for example.

Scrofula, Scurvy and Cancer - A medical textbook, including many case studies, involving the previously mentioned ailments.

Historical Fiction

The Surgeon's Daughter by Sir Walter Scott

A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

The Antiquary - Complete by Sir Walter Scott

A set of 58 icons featuring Rowan Atkinson in Blackadder the Third.
