Icons

The files noted here are scalable vector icons. These designs are intended to achieve a consistent look and feel across CBP products. Where applicable, use the “CBP Recommended Icons” first before seeking alternatives.

Attention - We are currently troubleshooting known technical issues relating to Internet Explorer’s inability to show icons internally.

Colors and Sizes

Icons should always be one solid color—black, white, or a Primary Color— and can stand alone or be placed in contrasting color circles.

When scaling icons, ensure the sizes used appear sharp on standard and high DPI screens.

Usage

  • Your application and audience may benefit from other methods of serving icons
  • The method used for dynamically scaling icons is dependent on the method used for serving icons
  • The method used for coloring icons is dependent on the method used for serving icons
  • For increased performance, create icon bundles containing only used icons

The style guide uses Font Awesome 4.4.0. See Font Awesome Icons full list of icons and examples.
