Digital Brand Identity Manual

3.6. Crowdsourcing Library

In the instance where a government organization has created an icon
bank that aligns with the icon style and mandates of this chapter, the
organization may submit it on the DBIM Toolkit website. After checking
for DBIM compliance, the icons shall be published in the visual library of
the kit.

3.7. Mandatory Checklist

i. Icon size must be as per Section 3.4.

ii. All icons must be in PNG, WEBP or SVG format only.

iii. All icons must either be in the key colour (darkest shade) of the
selected colour group or inclusive white.

iv. The correct proportion of icons must be retained in all cases. Icons
must not be disproportionately scaled or compressed or stretched,
as illustrated in Figure 10.

v. When placing an icon on an image or a banner, sufficient contrast
must be maintained with its background to enhance visibility and to
ensure accessibility. For example, while placing an icon on an
image, one may add a black overlay with 80% transparency over the
image or part of it and then place an inclusive white icon over it, as
illustrated in Figure 11.
