FANCY versions of Symbolset glyphs!
// This is a peek behind the curtain at @zaarly's epic-fantasy-heavy-metal-themed internal styleguide, better known as Hammer.
//
// With this, you can add the .fancy class to a symbolset span inside of a heading tag to add a nice circular background.
// Some adjustments to the positioning of a particular glyph may be necessary.
// Each :before is set to postion: relative, so fine-tuning a .fancy glyph is simple, and won't affect the position of the circle.
//
// Example markup (in HAML):
// %h1
// %span.ss-check.fancy
// Cool Guy Settings™ saved!
// %h2
// %span.ss-creditcard.fancy.warning
// We have no idea how to pay you!
//
// See screenshot in comments for an example of how it looks.
// The mixin! The default colors are a pleasant green shade.
