Post Custom SVG

So a lot of the premium themers state that they have hand written svg's.... what does one of these hand written svgs look like..

now im not asking for the themers to post up their own but if i could see what the svg for say the precision theme looks like maybe i can work my way up from there

thanks in advance.

It's a marketing thing.

Instead of using Composer to create their SVG files, they code them by hand, which is quite inefficient. Admittedly Composer does add some extra code that you don't really need, but it's still much faster to use Composer and then just remove the unnecessary code afterwards.

Once you get a real handle on SVG code it's pretty easy to just copy and paste bits of code from previous work to "hand code" without Composer.

Bottom line, stick with what works for you.

The question is, how do you know what can be left out? I've been trying to figure this out for a while now.

YuP. And if there's a shorter code I'd much rather use that.
