You may be looking for general information on tilesets or the Graphics set repository.

Square tilesets

These are all the character sets with square tiles, except for the character sets with 16×16 tiles. Those are listed below. Text in square tilesets (as opposed to tilesets with shorter width) is usually more difficult to read, but the map is not distorted.

Versions
Comments Based on the original IBM CGA Character set with a lot of tweaks. The characters remain as descriptive yet universal as possible. I chose the CGA set because it is in my opinion the square set with the best readability. This set is for those who like the basic ASCII look where every pixel has meaning or (multiple meanings). Download the BMP

There is also an upscaled 16x16 version of this set available for fullscreen use below.

Comments I wanted a 12x12 ASCII graphics set, sharp, with pleasant text, so I wound up making one myself from scratch. It's a little influenced by Guybrush, which I love, but after awhile the blurriness got to me.

(This tileset is not entirely ASCII; I changed the equals sign to a pattern, so that stockpiles would look the way I like.)

Comments This works great on my EeePCs shoddy resolution of 1024x600, and this is why I made it. This is basically the Terminus font converted for use on DF. I chose this font due to its readability at a low resolutions, and soon I'll convert some of the non-letter characters into actually objects like beds and dwarves, so keep a look out for an updated version that I'll add below.

This forum thread has the slightly 'graphical' test version. Quite amusing. Check there for updates.

I dislike curses_640x300.bmp due to its lack of any kind of graphics for things like a bed or a barrel and the fact that it distorts my beautiful circles, so I made a similarish tileset to fix those.

Comments Recently I learned of a monitor displaying 2560 pixels horizontally, and I decided it needed a tileset to put to use. Taking the tileset I use (Kelora 16x16 diagonal) and doubling it, I was able to get a decent tileset. Smoothing the edges, and redoing some glyphs to get a better look (or just messing up some to bad to fix), I was able to achieve this.

Comments Built from scratch, this ASCII tileset is made with two common 16:10 resolutions in mind. The odd tile size fills the above resolutions without artifacts and it gives an advantage in design, making for sharp features and equal spacing between characters. The manual anti-aliasing gives the set a nice and clean look. Transparent PNG support is needed for this one.

Comments A tileset based on Maus's 18x18 version of his "Nostalgia" tileset, however, it has been heavily revised. The entire font has been "smoothed over", and many of the symbols changed to more "graphical" representations of the items they represent. An attempt to fill the void of "graphic heavy" tilesets in the 18x18 tile-size. A special emphasis is placed on maximizing the text's readability, while still providing a "graphics enhanced" play area. Special thanks to Maus for the font, and Guybrush for the inspiration.

With everything else, I just tried to maximize clarity and readability and to keep them consistent. I'm really very pleased with how this set turned out.

16×16 tilesets

The 16×16 tilesets are a subset of square character sets. 16×16 is a frequently used size, as shown by the number of tilesets in this section. This is probably because all of the best creature graphics sets use 16×16 tiles. Those alternate sets for creatures can be found at graphics sets. If your screen is too small for these, turn on BLACK_SPACE!

Also, bins look decent and up/down stairs look okay. This set looks its best with Sphr's graphics.

Comments A square tileset using the diagonal wall concept from Belal and others but simplified drastically to improve the appearance. All the walls line up correctly and have consistent widths.

I did not use much of the pretty but confusing art I see in many of the other sets. I tried for a while to incorporate many of these but found that with the multiple uses for most characters they were just wrong far too often to be useful. The only ones that seem to work are the dwarves which I took from Flying Mage / Guybrush. The pretty 3Dish fonts as well just seem to look muddier and be less legible. I love it and my husband has been happily playing it for months.

Comments This combines content from other tilesets with Nintendo sprites to give the game a classic dungeon look. Note: Bins are hard to see using this tileset because the "bin" tile is also used as the "up/down staircase" tile. Aesomatica and Martin improve upon this tileset making the bin tile easier to see.

Comments Unsatisfied with any existing tileset, I decided to go about creating my own. Since I can't create from scratch, I had to take tiles from other tilesets and modify them, in an evolution-like manner, until they became how I wanted them. Since most are dramatically different from the tileset I took them from, I believe I can call them original.
In the raws, change the tag [TILE:'U'] for humans to [TILE:172]. This changes both the image and corpse of humans to a unique image, which creature graphics cannot do. The elves also get a different tile, [TILE:171]. I plan to make a separate goblin symbol.
If you use it and like it, please leave a message for at my talk page or at the DFFD page. This will greatly speed progress, since I won't be doing it just for myself.
Note: The DFFD version is updated more frequently and has the changelist.

I have managed to get all of the standard "L" tiles to fit together nicely, but "T" and "+" don't quite match up. It's not a problem that comes up often, and it still doesn't look that bad, but I'll get to it eventually.

16×16 tilesets for edited raws

These tilesets require modified raws to work properly. Specifically, the tile numbers assigned to some objects (critters, stones, plants) need to be changed and accented characters usually need to be removed from all languages.

If you cannot find the altered raws of a tileset for your version of df have a look at the Raw tile selector tool.

Comments Impressed with the genius of using sprites as tiles, I cobbled together this tileset of my own. It uses Super Foul Egg's superb font as a base, with several sprites also found in other users' sets. Because a lot of letters are used for graphics, I suggest that you remove accented letters from names with this set. I also suggest you shift some items to other icons, such as the coniferous trees (change Pine, Cedar, Larch from 024 to 147), the turtle (change 15 to 151), and Quarry Bush leaves (change from 006 to 003).

Comments This is a modified version of Mike Mayday's/Herrbdog's tileset. It has a more textured feel to the walls and makes heavy use of the new transparency features to make some of the tiles a little more dynamic. You can view a preview map here. I recommend changing the sky settings in the init.txt file to [SKY:249:1:0:0] for a more natural look.

Update June 11, 2010: Updated to work with the 31.xx versions of Mike Mayday's set. It will probably not look right using it with vanilla Dwarf Fortress.

Comments Designed for fullscreen. Inspired by Herrbdog's tileset, I created a shaded tileset targeting the default fullscreen 800x600 resolution. Basicaly, you have the exact same "curses" default tileset but with some shading done to the lower right of each letters and items. I've left alone everything which was related to mining or was meant to be plain, for example the smoothered tiles and the plain tiles in the demo. The reason behind that is that I didn't find much logic to have those graphics shaded as they could possibly connect on any direction on the screen, which would make the shading a little strange. Please note that this tileset is only a "beta". I might work on it again if there is enough people who like it and would like improvements. You can discuss the matter here.

Comments The original? IBM VGA 8x16 character set, (from http://madscientistroom.org/fpga/default-8x16-bram.html) as would be displayed on a VGA card with the 9-pixel-width disabled. Best for an 8:5 aspect ratio. The required resolution is strange, so run fullscreen with BLACK_SPACE:YES and resolution at 640x480. This rom has not yet been dumped from a real VGA card, and is coming from a secondary source, so it may be replaced later if I find the real font is different. The changed characters, in ASCII order are 'zero', 'at', 'M', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'm', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'vertical bar', 'C-cedilla', 'c-cedilla', 'A-ring', 'cent', 'yen', 'E-acute', 'ae ligature', 'peseta', 'florin', 'reversed logical not', 'fractions one half-one quarter', 'selected box drawing characters', 'left-and-right blocks', 'greek alpha, gamma, pi, sigma', 'mu', 'equivalence', 'less-greater or equal', 'top-bottom half integral', 'approximately equal', 'radical root', 'small superscript n'.

Comments Yuppers. I requested it a long time ago when everyone else was requesting different sized square tilesets with diagonal walls, and nobody ever fulfilled the request. I decided, "Oh, it's not like I have some menial and huge English project that's due tomorrow to work on, I'm going to make that." And I did.--Taritus 20:53, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Comments Hi res won't slow the game as it doesn't use graphics, so if your monitor can display it, go for it, really...
I strongly recommend to enable blackspace in the init: [BLACK_SPACE:YES]
Made from the 24pts cleartype lucida console above (from winterwing). I added some stuff (some original, some ideas taken from others tilesets). Basically I try to avoid symbols that are often seen in menus, etc. The main "problem" is the bag, because its the male symbol, but it was too good looking to not put it ;) Hope you enjoy :)
. . .Note: Winterwing's tileset is now lost. --Savok

Comments A large 257x257 DFMA world gen map can be found here.Updated 08/06/08. Changed most text characters as well as some others to 4x4 with blackspace to avoid tiling. Most characters have been revised to be spaced out to be more distinguishable in such a small set. After seeing the dev update earlier today about increasing your view size I decided to create this small font. This has been built completely from scratch, mostly while at work today. I may be making a shaded version in the future. The first image to the right is from the Abeyverse succession game.

Comments Version 2.05. Updated 11/12/07 to de-fuzz uppercase letters, added serifs and clarified lowercase letters, made horizontal spacing consistent throughout character set, fixed one error in the double horizontal-left-right, single-vertical-up-down character, made exclamation points consistent, thinned out question mark and inverse question mark, sharpened sideways stemless arrows, clarified international characters, and clarified some greek letters. Since v2.0: fixed 'i' 'g', fixed Yen symbol, fixed smiley 0x01 to not have an extra line to its right, lowered the period and colon characters, fixed position of 'x'. Thanks to Markavian for ideas on how to improve the font, as well as an occasional character glyph.
