Incase somebody is wondering where the icons for the badges on Discourse come from, it’s a font called fontawesome. Here’s a list of all usable icons on Discourse:

I myself was wondering where they came from, and I searched around until I found a post stating that it’s from fontawesome. The most commonly used icons on our forum are :certificate: and :user:.

Tower Unite uses fontawesome in-game as well. It’s a great font.
