Sure, we have big fancy new icon packs, but it's the small details that win me over every time. Icons on the left are from version 6 of @fontawesome.com, icons on the right are version 7. Nips, tucks, and tweaks.

If you've ever wondered if you could make the @fontawesome.com and @webawesome.com logos out of LEGO... well, yes. Yes, you can.

Seems like an appropriate time to repost these.

When we had the idea to bring in some outside designers to help, @laurarbee.bsky.social was LITERALLY our first call.
Presenting Chisel, a new icon set by yours truly for the most awesome @fontawesome.com!

When @shkspr.bsky.social & @jabron.us asked if I could pack in as much personality as possible, it was game on. And of course, the moment I got full creative freedom, creative block entered the chat. Classic!

At the end of last year, we lost one of our kittens for three weeks. I recount the story (and the dramatic rescue) on the latest Podcast Awesome episode: www.podcastawesome.com/2092855/epis...

Oh, and we also talk about Font Awesome n' stuff.
