    With the "Socials" settings, it's really unfortunate that there isn't an icon for "email" where a simple mailto:xxx.yyy could be added alongside Facebook, Twitter, etc.

    Is it possible to make a simple hack to maybe point one of the sites that I'm not using, e.g. Wordpress or Flickr, to specify an email icon instead?

    Thank you very much!

    So, I went through the code, and ostensibly there isn't social_'email'... icon in the character set.   The loop that iterates over the of possibilities array prepends 'social_' to the icon name, which is set up in:

    .../wp-content/plugins/thegem-elements/inc/shortcodes/shortcodes.php

    It'd be nice if this was a bit more generic...to make the change myself would be too intrusive and not worth it in my case.  I just added a button.

    It would be really nice if, to the left of the Twitter Icon, there could be an envelope icon for email.  I worked around it by adding a button to the page.

    Also, for light backgrounds it'd be great if it was possible to specify the hover color, as it seems to be hard coded to white.

    Thanks!
