How to scale/size a css animation? - css

Question

Not really aware how to use CSS animations, but I found something that works perfectly for my site. The one issue, is it's way too small. Anyone have any advice for what I would need to tinker with to expand the size? I actually see where to increase the size/scale towards the end of the animation, which is made obvious with the scale attributes. What I don't know, is controlling the size before the animation causes it to expand. Thank you very much. -Wilson

css:
.overlay-loader .loader-icon {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 44%;
color: #42f498;
}
.overlay-loader .loader-icon.spinning-cog {
-webkit-animation: spinning-cog 1.3s infinite ease;
-moz-animation: spinning-cog 1.3s infinite ease;
-ms-animation: spinning-cog 1.3s infinite ease;
-o-animation: spinning-cog 1.3s infinite ease;
animation: spinning-cog 1.3s infinite ease;
background-color: #42f498;
}
#-webkit-keyframes spinning-cog {
0% { -webkit-transform: rotate(0deg) }
20% { -webkit-transform: rotate(-45deg) }
100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg) }
}
#-moz-keyframes spinning-cog {
0% { -moz-transform: rotate(0deg) }
20% { -moz-transform: rotate(-45deg) }
100% { -moz-transform: rotate(360deg) }
}
#-o-keyframes spinning-cog {
0% { -o-transform: rotate(0deg) }
20% { -o-transform: rotate(-45deg) }
100% { -o-transform: rotate(360deg) }
}
#keyframes spinning-cog {
0% { transform: rotate(0deg) }
20% { transform: rotate(-45deg) }
100% { transform: rotate(360deg) }
}
#-webkit-keyframes shrinking-cog {
0% { -webkit-transform: scale(2) }
20% { -webkit-transform: scale(2.2) }

Answer 1

If you want it to be big from the start of the animation, add scale to spinning-cog animation. do this to all prefixes (change x to what scale you want)
#keyframes spinning-cog {
0% { transform: rotate(0deg) scale(x)}
20% { transform: rotate(-45deg) scale(x)}
100% { transform: rotate(360deg) scale(x)}
}
