When people first view the site, the icons show as a square with a wire frame. Also the circle attribute for icons doesn’t show completely circular, is this a setting issue?

    Hi Elliot

    Thanks for reaching out.

    This is something I’ve seen happen with the loading of Font Awesome on my personal, non-Vantage driven site. A slow connection can make it a lot more obvious. If you send through your link we’ll take a look and see if there is anything that can be done.

    Thanks. The issue you’re facing is known as cross domain loading. Assets aren’t allowed to be loaded from other domains and get blocked as a result. Your site is at the .net domain but your assets are being loaded from the .com. If this situation is unavoidable you might try the fix suggested by David Walsh: http://davidwalsh.name/cdn-fonts.
