Creative Commons Sampling

The Creative Commons SAMPLING icon represents a specific type of Creative Commons license that allows sampling. This license allows users to sample and use parts of the work in new creations. Its significance lies in promoting open-source and collaborative creativity by enabling sampling.

In real-world applications, the Creative Commons SAMPLING icon might appear on websites, blogs, or platforms that use Creative Commons-licensed content. For example, it could be used on a website like Wikipedia or Flickr.

From a UX perspective, the Creative Commons SAMPLING icon communicates a sense of openness and collaboration. It helps users understand that the content can be sampled and used in new creations.

Creative Commons Sampling is one of 460 icons in Font Awesome 5 Brands, made by Dave Gandy and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 496 × 512 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds CreativeCommonsSamplingIcon to components/icons/fa-brands-creative-commons-sampling.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed CreativeCommonsSamplingIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Creative Commons Sampling icon, or any of 460 Font Awesome 5 Brands icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 496 × 512 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Creative Commons Sampling", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. CreativeCommonsSamplingIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <CreativeCommonsSamplingIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (Dave Gandy) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by Dave Gandy, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
