And "low resolution" SVGs will look bad in the future too. It won't be as graphically apparent, but they will look barren and odd, because there's no detail as they were designed with a lower resolution in mind.
- willis936 7y agoThe detail level is a design choice. Even though you could have immensely intricate SVGs, you expect some graphics to take up a small portion of your view. Unfortunately the screens are the only things getting better over time, not the eyes.
- chrisweekly 7y agoCould you clarify what you mean by "low resolution" SVG?
- frosted-flakes 7y agoIcons designed to be small have less detail and often rely more on the general shape, sometimes exaggerating certain features of the icon to make them stand out. Large icons or images can be filled with lots of rich detail. Scaling up a small icon often makes it look barren and generally out of proportion, and scaling down large, highly detailed icons/images makes the icon "noisy" and loses the essence of the icon. This does not only apply to vector icons, by the way. Most highly polished icon sets will have an icon for different sizes. For example, in Windows, zoom the desktop icons in/out and compare.
