Google icons are designed to be used with inline elements. The <i> and <span>
elements are widely used for icons.
Also note that if you change the color of the icon's container, the color of the icon changes too. Same things goes for shadow, and anything else that gets inherited using CSS. The exception is the CSS font-size property, which is always 24px, unless something else is specified.
Although the material icons can be scaled to any size, the recommended font-size is either 18, 24, 36 or 48px:
The following code:
<style>
/* Rules for icon sizes: */
.material-icons.md-18 { font-size:
18px; }
.material-icons.md-24 { font-size:
24px; } /* Default */
.material-icons.md-36 { font-size:
36px; }
.material-icons.md-48 { font-size:
48px; }
</style>
<i class="material-icons md-18">cloud</i>
<i class="material-icons md-24">cloud</i>
<i class="material-icons md-36">cloud</i>
<i class="material-icons md-48">cloud</i>
