Heroku should consider using SVG for the badge, just like shields.io and services like Travis CI do. The current button is blurry on a retina screen, and basic SVG is really well supported.

- pooper 12y agoVery impressive
- danielweber 12y agoI'm not on a retina display but that doesn't look as nice. The letters are so thin they start to disappear even before using the light-purple-on-dark-purple font.
- yutah 12y agothe font does look thinner but I like it (doesn't look any more invisible from my eyes)
- dubcanada 12y agoThe fact that on a Mac the font is thinner makes me wonder if you can even see it on Windows?
- thaumasiotes 12y agoJudging by my windows machine and using just my eyes, yes, it's a little thinner, and no, there's no problem reading it. The faded-grey-ness of the words "to Heroku" is a much bigger legibility problem than the minor change in font weight.
- joeyspn 12y agoYou should just convert to .svg the white icon, the rest of the button will look better in CSS.
- _frog 12y agoThat may be the case, but there's many contexts where you'd use this button where you can't alter the page's CSS. Perhaps the prime example being GitHub READMEs.
