How to Add Old Key Icons to Your Website

Method 1: Inline SVG (Recommended)

The best way to add your Old Key icon is by copying the SVG code directly into your HTML. This method offers the most flexibility and performance benefits.

<!-- Add this directly to your HTML -->
<svg class="old-key-square-icon" viewBox="0 0 24 24" width="24" height="24">
  <path d="..." />
</svg>

Benefits of Inline SVG:

  • ✅ No additional HTTP requests - faster page load
  • ✅ Full CSS styling control - change colors with CSS
  • ✅ Animatable with CSS or JavaScript
  • ✅ Scales perfectly at any size
  • ✅ Works offline once loaded

Method 2: SVG File

Download the Old Key SVG file and reference it in your HTML. Good for reusing the same icon multiple times.

<!-- As an image -->
<img src="icons/old-key-square.svg" alt="Old Key" width="24" height="24">

<!-- As a background image -->
<div class="old-key-square-bg" style="background-image: url('icons/old-key-square.svg');"></div>

Method 3: PNG Format

Use PNG when you need compatibility with older browsers or email clients that don't support SVG.

<img src="icons/old-key-square-64.png" alt="Old Key" width="32" height="32">

SVG vs PNG: Which Should You Choose?

Choose SVG When:

  • You need scalable graphics
  • File size matters (SVGs are smaller)
  • You want to animate or style with CSS
  • Supporting modern browsers only
  • Building responsive designs

Choose PNG When:

  • Email compatibility is required
  • Supporting legacy browsers
  • Using in Microsoft Office
  • Complex gradients or effects
  • Printing requirements

Common Implementation Tips

⚠️ Watch Out For:

  • Color conflicts: Remove fill attributes from SVG if you want CSS control
  • Size issues: Always set width/height or use viewBox for proper scaling
  • CORS errors: Host SVG files on the same domain when using as background images
  • Accessibility: Always include alt text or aria-label for screen readers
