SVG Graphics: Tips and Sizing

2 min read
SVG Graphics are great in general because they are both dynamic and also very small. This means you can have a large image "visually" yet the actual size in bytes will be quite small. Much smaller than any other image type. Also, as they are vector based, you can increase the size visually and you won't get that "stretched" and "pixelated" look and feel.
