Stack Overflow SVG Icon (Free Download)

I added my Stack Overflow icon but I can't see it on my website. What should I do?

First, check that you've correctly copied the complete SVG code or image file. Ensure the icon isn't hidden by CSS (check for display: none or visibility: hidden). Verify the file path is correct if using PNG/SVG files, and clear your browser cache to see updates.

How do I change the size of my Stack Overflow icon?

For SVG icons, add width="32px" height="32px" attributes to the <svg> tag or use CSS like svg { width: 32px; height: 32px; }. For PNG icons, use CSS: img { width: 32px; height: 32px; }. SVG icons scale perfectly at any size.

How can I change the color of my Stack Overflow icon?

SVG icons can be colored using CSS: svg { fill: #1DA1F2; } or svg { color: #1DA1F2; }. PNG icons have fixed colors and cannot be changed. This is why SVG is recommended for customization flexibility.

Can I adjust the size of my Stack Overflow icon after I embed it?

How can I align my Stack Overflow icon center, left, or right?

Should I use SVG or PNG format for my Stack Overflow icon?

Will adding Stack Overflow icons slow down my website?

Do Stack Overflow icons work in all browsers?
