It seems web fonts/icon fonts are becoming more and more popular lately.

I've stumbled across a great website called IcoMoon which allows you to import different sets of font icons such as FontAwesome, Iconic and more. You can then select the icons you want to use by clicking them. The website will then give you the option to encode the font files as a base64 encoded string to prevent HTTP requests being made to find the font files.

It reduces the size of the files because you're not importing every single icon even though you won't use 3/4 of them, and it's also great that you can mix and match different sets.

I definitely recommend you check it out.

That's handy, like you said it saves sending a request for a file that holds hundreds of icons, when you only use very few of them. May start using this from now on, bookmarked.

When clicking through Devbest it doesn't load properly. Better off going to Google and typing in "icomoon".
