625 PointsIcons not showing up ..
Okay, so 2 others have asked this question but none of them have a conclusive answer .. So, the problem is that none of the icons are appearing , here is my css:
.contact-info li.phone a {
background-image: url ('../img/phone.png');
}
.contact-info li.mail a {
background-image: url ('../img/mail.png');
}
.contact-info li.twitter a {
background-image: url ('../img/twitter.png');
}
The file structure is the same as that of Nick's :) I assume there is nothing wrong with the html part of the code, Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Akhil

url ('../img/phone.png')
use it so in your css:
url('../img/phone.png')
