Try clearing your browser cache. The icons were fine for me.
I am the dev for the site nightowlcorner.com (above is the owner). I have cleared cache, removed plugins, uninstalled and reinstalled and configured. It works in Google Chrome (desktop and mobile) but it does not work in Firefox or IE. It appears that it is not working Safari also, http://wordpress.org/support/topic/icons-not-showing-3
Hope to hear back soon.
Same thing with Firefox – weird pics… But Safari on iPhone works fine
Firefox has an error in the console:
[17:09:07.480] downloadable font: download failed (font-family: "fontello" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:1): bad URI or cross-site access not allowed

I don’t have IE to see what error it might have.
You can eliminate the security error in Firefox by implementing the snippet on http://wordpress.org/support/topic/icons-dont-work-in-firefox?replies=14.
Hey Ron,
I have added in the htaccess code and FF and IE are now working.
Thanks.
Someone, please help me. I can’t get them to work either! http://guriladesign.com
add the following code to your .htaccess file
<files ~ ".(ttf|otf|eot|woff)$">
allow from all
</files>
My icons show up looking weird on the home page but are fine on all other pages (in IE 11, Chrome, and FF). When I click to a second page then back to the home page, the icons appear fine. I tried adding the following code but it didn’t seem to resolve the issue. Does it matter where in the .htaccess file you put it? I’m on WP V4.
<files ~ ".(ttf|otf|eot|woff)$">
allow from all
</files>
