User X
Animated user x icon
The User X animated icon plays on hover and reverses on mouse leave in 0.27 s, a good fit for team member lists with add and remove user actions. Hover icons typically mark navigation items, delete buttons, settings, zoom controls and social links.

Questions about the User X icon
›Does User X finish its animation after mouse leave?
It reverses from the frame it reached back to the start, so a quick pass of the pointer gives a short nudge rather than the full 0.27 s. Keyboard focus plays it as well; a tap on a touch screen does not.
›Is User X decorative?
By default it is aria-hidden. Pass aria-label="User X" to announce it as an image, or leave it hidden when the link or button it sits in has its own text.
›Can User X play on click instead?
Yes: pass interaction="click-replay". It then replays once from the start on every click unless reduced motion is preferred.
