I was looking at the resources on the actual BBC news website. My point being, I wonder if the BEEB might be better off using webfonts for icons since every other image can be a jpeg. And if it can be a JPEG, the aggressive compression technique might be a better approach since it doesn't require any JS or additional HTTP connections. Are you saying that the BEEB has a policy of not using web fonts? If so, why?
