Genericons are vector icons embedded in a webfont designed to be clean and simple keeping with a generic aesthetic.
Use genericons for instant HiDPI, to change icon colors on the fly, or even with CSS effects such as drop-shadows or gradients!

To use it, place the font folder in your stylesheet directory and paste this in your CSS file:
/* =Genericons, thanks to FontSquirrel.com for conversion!
-------------------------------------------------------------- */
@font-face {
font-family: 'Genericons';
src: url('font/genericons-regular-webfont.eot');
src: url('font/genericons-regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('font/genericons-regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('font/genericons-regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('font/genericons-regular-webfont.svg#genericonsregular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Note: the above only works if you don't use a CDN. If you do, or don't know what that is, you should use the syntax that's embedded in genericons.css.
From then on, you can create an icon like this:
.my-icon:before {
content: '\f101';
display: inline-block;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
font: normal 16px/1 'Genericons';
vertical-align: top;
}
This will output a comment icon before every element with the class "my-icon". The "content: '\f101';" part of this CSS is easily copied from the helper tool at http://genericons.com/
You can also use the bundled example.css if you'd rather insert the icons using HTML tags.

Genericons-Regular.otf found in the root directory of this zip has not been web-font-ified. So you can drop it in your system fonts folder and use the font in Photoshop if you like.
Note that Genericons has been designed for a 16x16 pixel grid. That means it'll look sharp at font-size: 16px exactly. It'll also be crisp at multiples thereof, such as 32px or 64px. It'll also look reasonably crisp at in-between font sizes such as 24px or 48px, but not quite as crisp as 16 or 32. Please don't set the font-size to 17px, though, that'll just look terrible.
Also note the CSS property "-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased". That makes the icons look great in WebKit browsers. Please see http://noscope.com/2012/font-smoothing for more info.

V3.0:
Mainly maintenance and a few new icons.
- Fast forward, rewind, PollDaddy, Notice, Info, Help, Portfolio
- Updated the feed icon. It's a bit smaller now for consistency, the previous one was rather big.
- So, the previous version numbering, 2.09, wasn't very PHP version compare friendly. So from now on it'll be 3.0, 3.1 etc. Props Ipstenu.
- Genericons.com now has a mini release blog.
- The CSS has prettier formatting, props Konstantin Obenland.
V2.09:
Updated Facebook icon to new version. Updated Instagram logo to use new one-color version. Updated Google+ icon to use same radius as Instagram and Facebook. Added a bunch of new icons, cog, unapprove, cart, media player buttons, tablet, send to tablet.
V2.06:
Included Base64 encoded version. This is necessary for Genericons to work with CDNs in Firefox. Firefox blocks fonts linked from a different domain. A CDN (typically s.example.com) usually puts the font on a subdomain, and is hence blocked in Firefox.
V2.05:
Added a bunch of new icons, including upload to cloud, download to cloud, many more.
V2:
Initial public release
