- Lisa – I’m loving on font icons these days. I find myself using them more and more to replace image based icons and sprites and have found a few great open source icon fonts to share:
- From Keyamoon (@keyamoon) With over 2600 free and open source icons in IcoMoon’s Library – one of my favorites is: Icomoon: http://icomoon.io/
- From Creativemarket.com – Listicons: https://creativemarket.com/MediaLoot/566-Listicons-Arrows-Bullet-Points
- 52 arrows and bullet points that are designed to replace large image sprites with a smaller and infinitely scalable collection of font-based list and bullet point icons
- Genericons from Automattic: http://wpdaily.co/genericons/
