How can I shrink my RSS feed icon?
-
I got some help to add the RSS feed icon to my blog, which is great, but the icon is HUGE! The code in the widget is:
<img src=”http://heartscape.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/128px-feed-iconsvg.png”>
Does anyone know a quick way to shrink this icon while preserving its function? I tried changing the number before “px-feed” but it didn’t work and completely removed the icon.
Thanks for the help,

Just resize it in photo editing software and reupload it. Give a very different name to avoid problems with a filename quirk you might encounter.
-
Quick way is just adding the right command in the code:
<img src="URL_HERE" width="28px"></a> -
Thanks for the advice. I added the new command code in addition to the old so that it read:
<img src=”http://heartscape.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/128px-feed-iconsvg.png”>
<img src=”URL_HERE” width=”28px”>
…but, the icon size did not change. Still too big!
Check out my blog to see what I mean.
If you have anymore suggestions I’d love to keep trying!Thanks :) Jane

Remove what you have and paste this:
<a href="http://heartscape.wordpress.com/feed"> <img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-123" width="28" alt="rss-icon" src="http://heartscape.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/rss-icon.jpg" title="rss-icon"/> Pass me along to your friends, and as always, I'd love your comments :) </a>28px seems quite small. You might want to make it a little larger.

What I pasted above was a code model: an example of how to modify your existing code. You can do as tsp says – minus a couple of unnecessary things:
<a href="http://heartscape.wordpress.com/feed"><img class="alignleft" src="http://heartscape.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/rss-icon.jpg" alt="rss-icon" width="48" />Pass me along to your friends, and as always, I'd love your comments :)(You can change “48” to whatever you prefer.)

Whatever.
All I did was copy out the OP’s code and fix the size issue. The rest of it is from the OP’s copy/paste from the post editor and while it isn’t necessary, it didn’t do any harm.
