fa-camera-retro
You can place Font Awesome icons just about anywhere using the CSS Prefix fa
and the icon's
name. Font Awesome is designed to be used with inline elements (we like the <i>
tag
for
brevity, but using a <span>
is more semantically correct).
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro"></i> fa-camera-retro
fa-lg
fa-2x
fa-3x
fa-4x
fa-5x
To increase icon sizes relative to their container, use the fa-lg
(33% increase), fa-2x
,
fa-3x
, fa-4x
, or fa-5x
classes.
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-lg"></i>
fa-lg
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-2x"></i> fa-2x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-3x"></i> fa-3x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-4x"></i> fa-4x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-5x"></i> fa-5x
Use fa-fw
to set icons at a fixed width. Great to use when different icon widths throw off
alignment.
Especially useful in things like nav lists & list groups.
<div class="list-group">
<a class="list-group-item"
href="#"><i class="fa fa-home fa-fw"></i> Home</a>
<a class="list-group-item"
href="#"><i class="fa fa-book fa-fw"></i> Library</a>
<a class="list-group-item"
href="#"><i class="fa fa-pencil fa-fw"></i> Applications</a>
<a class="list-group-item"
href="#"><i class="fa fa-cog fa-fw"></i> Settings</a>
</div>
Use fa-ul
and fa-li
to easily replace default bullets in unordered lists.
<ul class="fa-ul">
<li><i class="fa-li fa fa-check-square"></i>List icons</li>
<li><i class="fa-li fa fa-check-square"></i>can be used</li>
<li><i class="fa-li fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i>as bullets</li>
<li><i class="fa-li fa fa-square"></i>in lists</li>
</ul>
…tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther… And then one fine morning— So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
Use fa-border
and pull-right
or pull-left
for easy pull quotes or
article icons.
<i class="fa fa-quote-left fa-3x pull-left fa-border"></i>
...tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther...
And then one fine morning— So we beat on, boats against the
current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
Use the fa-spin
class to get any icon to rotate. Works well with fa-spinner
,
fa-refresh
, and fa-cog
.
<i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i>
<i class="fa fa-circle-o-notch fa-spin"></i>
<i class="fa fa-refresh fa-spin"></i>
<i class="fa fa-cog fa-spin"></i>
CSS3 animations aren't supported in IE8 - IE9.
normal
fa-rotate-90
fa-rotate-180
fa-rotate-270
fa-flip-horizontal
fa-flip-vertical
To arbitrarily rotate and flip icons, use the fa-rotate-*
and fa-flip-*
classes.
<i class="fa fa-shield"></i>
normal<br>
<i class="fa fa-shield fa-rotate-90"></i>
fa-rotate-90<br>
<i class="fa fa-shield fa-rotate-180"></i>
fa-rotate-180<br>
<i class="fa fa-shield fa-rotate-270"></i>
fa-rotate-270<br>
<i class="fa fa-shield fa-flip-horizontal"></i> fa-flip-horizontal<br>
<i class="fa fa-shield fa-flip-vertical"></i> icon-flip-vertical
To stack multiple icons, use the fa-stack
class on the parent, the fa-stack-1x
for the regularly sized icon, and fa-stack-2x
for the larger icon. fa-inverse
can be used as an alternative icon color. You can even throw larger icon classes
on the parent
to get further control of sizing.
<span class="fa-stack fa-lg">
<i class="fa fa-square-o fa-stack-2x"></i>
<i class="fa fa-twitter fa-stack-1x"></i>
</span>
fa-twitter on fa-square-o<br>
<span class="fa-stack fa-lg">
<i class="fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x"></i>
<i class="fa fa-flag fa-stack-1x fa-inverse"></i>
</span>
fa-flag on fa-circle<br>
<span class="fa-stack fa-lg">
<i class="fa fa-square fa-stack-2x"></i>
<i class="fa fa-terminal fa-stack-1x fa-inverse"></i>
</span>
fa-terminal on fa-square<br>
<span class="fa-stack fa-lg">
<i class="fa fa-camera fa-stack-1x"></i>
<i class="fa fa-ban fa-stack-2x text-danger"></i>
