02How it's drawn
The recipe for scissors
Scissors is not stored as a drawing. It is a recipe of 2 circles and 2 lines 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.

Shapes: L line, P polyline, Z closed shape, R rectangle, C circle, E ellipse, A arc, Q curve, O dot. Separate shapes with ;. Edits stay on this page.
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 scissors. Seed 0 is the default.
True pixel sizes.
