Webdings

It was put in Microsoft's collection of typefaces called the Core fonts for the Web. Many of the characters from Webdings were put in Unicode in version 7.0.

The character of a lightning bolt was made to look similar to the one in David Bowie's album Aladdin Sane. Connare made the characters NYC an eye, a heart, and a skyline to show the I Love New York logo.
