Wow. I am seriously impressed. This has to have caused you more than one headache! While I admire the results of what you did, I think this is not where the future of the web should go. CSS3 at this point is not good enough to do rich graphics like this. We seriously need to be able to do this stuff from within the stylesheet and not flood the content with non-semantic elements, and the lack of shapes, like polygons and bezier curves makes creating any of this rich graphics a chore.

Wow. I did spot one little fault though in your Messages icon the tip part isn't quite right. Sorry for being so nitpicky :)

Love the scalability of these. I wonder how long before we get image editors that export to css3 and html5?

Wow.
Love this, but not too sure about practicality - it also slows Safari to a screeching halt when I open the page.
Nevertheless, they are amazing.

Thanks all!
I've worked on that messages icon for a long time, and it seems impossible for that tip to display correctly.
And yes, Safari does not like rendering all of the CSS (especially when resizing the window) but that's not important for this demo.
Is this really practical though? Probably not as of right now, but it's freaking cool.

Art doesn't have to be practical. Great job! A wonderful contribution to the Internets, I had no idea this was even possible.
