02How it's drawn
The recipe for paperclip
Paperclip is not stored as a drawing. It is a recipe of 3 lines and 2 arcs on a 24 by 24 grid, and a small program draws it like a pencil would. The wobble comes from the name, so it always comes out the same.

03Takes, sizes, pencil
Same icon, every way
Pass a seed for another take of the same recipe. The wobble is capped, so it still reads at 16 px.
Five seeds of paperclip. Seed 0 is the default.
