And have you seen how ugly it looks with Chrome on Windows 7? Which should be the most popular browser + most popular OS. So I disagree with you and the blog author you should use fonts as icons. They look ugly with Chrome + if fonts are not supported they don't show anything. At least if the image is missing you see X.

Fair enough. It's a compromise.

It doesn't look great that's for sure, but you can still tell what the icons are i.e. it's good enough. If you're designing things such that a missing icon causes the UI to be incomprehensible, you're probably designing it badly
