Hello,

There is not much need for a sprite with those images; they are very small images that won't effect page speed. They are meant to be independent images because they change on every design used in the framework. Combining them into a single sprite would require a massive amount of custom css programming, and would not benefit your site.

First of all thanks for answer
So gtmetrix gives to me a pure no-sense and academic result when indicate = 0
Like a false positive, right?

Thanks

Hello,

It's not non-sense, but it's not necessary to do. Sprites are used when you want fewer http requests, but these images are so small, some less than 1kb, that the http are so fast it won't effect page speed.
