[Enhancement] Use Fonts instead of images #14

Open GreenLunar opened 9 years ago

GreenLunar commented 9 years ago

Just as GitHub and others do. Be it with characters of custom special set of fonts or otherwise.

For example (not custom): Instead of image /src/plugins/websearch/public/images/seeks_croix_light_10x10.png Use or or or or and color it in #F9778C. <p><font color="#F9778C">✕</font></p>.

Using custom font:

You may find brand icons of search engines at: http://richstyle.org/font.php (this set seems like a good compilation) http://www.fontspace.com/ptocheia/socialicons http://www.fontspace.com/matt-grey-design/social-networking-icons http://fontawesome.io/icons/#brand

Anything else: http://richstyle.org/font.php http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/ http://fontawesome.io/icons/#directional http://fontawesome.io/icons/#text-editor https://icomoon.io/

Some alternatives to images...

Can you PR changes for this ?

GreenLunar commented 9 years ago

No, unless you would help me with some guidance. I never dealt with @face (for custom font) in CSS.

Would you like to correspond via Email?

@GreenLunar sorry I cannot help with anything related to Web dev such as CSS or HTML, just not my field.
