- ben1040 14y agoMissing all the characters altogether: http://imgur.com/ByrB9 http://imgur.com/ByrB9 (Chrome 20.0.1132.21 on Mac OS X 10.7.3)
- voltagex_ 14y agoAny extra info in the script console?
- ben1040 14y agoNope. After spending the morning digging (turns out no other web fonts would show up either) I discovered it was a corrupted OS X font cache.
- jtreminio 14y agoWorking for me on Chrome 20.0.1132.21 beta-m, Win 7, but very jagged aliased edges.
- joelhaasnoot 14y agoThe icons look awful at small sizes
- lloeki 14y agoChrome 19 is fine here on Mac OS X
- fceccon 14y agoAlso Firefox 14 is fine on OS X 10.7.4
- ben1040 14y agoUpdate: there was actually a web font rendering issue on my machine. No web fonts would render at all. Clearing the font cache as instructed here solved the problem. http://surgeworks.com/blog/general/how-to-fix-chrome-for-mac-broken-fonts http://surgeworks.com/blog/general/how-to-fix-chrome-for-mac...
- smcguinness 14y agoI just upgraded. Is anyone else seeing the icons squished and less sharp than the previous version?
- TenJack 14y agoYea, I noticed that when looking at the github demo.
- fortawesome 14y agoThe issue's been submitted and I'm looking into it. I suspect it might be a side-effect of using ttfautohint. What browser version and OS are you on?
- juriga 14y agoFonts are distorted for me too. Chrome 21.0.1155.2, Windows 7 x64: http://i.imgur.com/OZDLr.png http://i.imgur.com/OZDLr.png Thanks for the incredible work!
- fortawesome 14y agoApparently this was an issue with using Font Squirrel (!!). Fixing now.
- fortawesome 14y agoIssues with squished windows fonts have been fixed and pushed. Looks like it might have been an issue using Font Squirrel.
- smcguinness 14y agoI noticed the update does not have a svgz font file, however the css references that file. Last version I had did have the svgz font file.
- ra 14y agoNice work, thank you so much for fontawesome! I use them in every bootstrap project now; can't live without resizing and colouring my icons.

- syassami 14y agoAwesome! going to use these in my side project now =)
- illicium 14y agoUnfortunately, like most icon fonts, this looks like a blurry mess at 16x16px.
- mgcross 14y agoYeah, but they look great on high ppi devices (new iPad, nexus one) even at 12px.
- arkitaip 14y agoIs there anyone collecting all these great Bootstrap resources?
- panacea 14y agoOriginally the desktop font was going to be part of a "commercial version"... the developer appears to have changed their mind?
- ricardobeat 14y agoMinor nitpick, but the element used to add icons should be a <span>, or even better, a pseudo-element added via CSS.
- lloeki 14y agoYou mean in place of <i>? That's what Bootstrap uses. Also the meaning of <i> has been shifted in HTML5 [0]. [0] http://stackoverflow.com/a/10001692/368409 http://stackoverflow.com/a/10001692/368409
- jacobr 14y agoYes, but it still has a meaning, and it is not "icon". I think you can be pragmatic here and use <i>, since it to my knowledge doesn't cause any real world problem, but it's worth exploring other options. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///wAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==" class="i-icon" alt="Kitten"> .i-icon { width: 32px; height: 32px; background-image: url(http://placekitten.com/32/32); } The src is the data uri of a transparent gif. Screen readers will hear the alt text if you supply one. This will not work with font icons (img can't have ::before or ::after) but it should work fine for sprites or data uris in the CSS.
- dan1234 14y agoDoes anyone know if they actually have permission to include the logos of pInterest, LinkedIn, Facebook etc? Couldn't see anything in the article. Aside from that, it's a nice collection which I could see finding a way into many of my projects.
- jacobr 14y agoThank you for finally adding a feed icon!
- uncoder0 14y agoI hate this trend so much. I must say it feels like it "Breaks" the web. I use Gill Dyslexic[1] on all websites across the internet and I'm tired of having to put in exceptions for sites like github. Icons should be images.
