Portfolio: Graphics (25×25 Icons)
Introduction
I made these 25×25 icons: many adapted from logos, many made for Browser News news items, many made for buttons, all loading super-fast.
Note: when adapting icons from existing artwork, much work and special tools are needed to make icons look good and load super-fast. For example, below are an official Netscape icon, on the left, and my version, on the right: the official icon is 1,666 bytes long with 530 colours; mine is crisper and clearer, 259 bytes long, with 16 colours.
Note: some may wonder why the 25×25 size was chosen. It was chosen historically because 25×25 is the best size for most logos appearing within standard 88×31 buttons. For example:
