Making the icon <strong>scalable</strong>, <strong>responsive</strong>, and <strong>suitable for many devices</strong> is what’s important if you want someone to use your icons. It requires a lot of rational thinking and quite a bit of experience with icon design, and that is something we have.

Always stick to even numbers (2 px, 4 px, 6 px, etc.) You can use odd numbers as well, as long as they’re aligned with the grid. As long as these are whole numbers, your lines should be fine.</p> <p>However, if you absolutely need to use fractional numbers for your stroke width, you’ll need to take a few extra steps to clean up the edges. Once you rasterize an icon that uses fractional stroke width, you’ll see a few partially transparent pixels around the outline. Make sure you move all these fractional pixels inward so that this blurring stays on the inside, leaving the outer edges clean. This way, the semi-transparent blurry pixels won’t harm the readability of your icon. </p> <div style="height:50px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://bst.icons8.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/2_5px_stroke-1.webp" alt="video call icon half pixels"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><a href="https://ic8.link/3nt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Video Call icon</a></figcaption></figure></div> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-inner-elements">Inner elements</h3> <p>Inner elements of an icon may get distorted if they aren’t aligned with its size.
