The balance of the page layout felt different when the icons were still circles. Not sure if it's worth exploring alignment of icon & text.

I'm into this. Alternatively, we should give it a little rotation (-2deg) and drop shadow to make it feel like it was placed there.

That might be nice - make it feel like a sticker or stamp. That's kind of how the circle felt way back when. it's just a matter of creating some visual balance on the page. Your call in terms of what seems most appropriate at this stage.

What if we go with something like this?

transform: rotate(-3deg);
box-shadow: 0 3px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.25);
opacity: 0.75;

I think we should leave it how it is for right now, and go back to it during the nitpick phase, any change I make will require adjustments to the JavaScript, since everything is coded exactly how it is.
