Comment (by sysrqb):

 Replying to [comment:54 sysrqb]:
 > :( sadness. We can try svg. The one problem with using an SVG is Android
 support. Currently, TBA is supported on API versions 16+, but SVG support
 (or VectorDrawable on Android) was only added in version 21. I think we
 can try our best here, and we can use use the vectorized animation when it
 is supported and fallback on the rasterized version when it is not
 supported.

 icons or we can use the vectorized image when it is supported and fallback
 on the png when VectorDrawable isn't available.

 Okay, these were completely non-issues. I have an vector "settings gear"
 working without a problem. Android provided a backwards-compatible method
 for supporting vector images and it works transparently at run-time (it's
 actually quite nice). The button is a little smaller now, but we can
 iterate on that.

 I just need the spinning onion as an SVG now.
