Perfect Font Awesome Integration

The plugin works great, but the average user will be difficult to deal with Font Awesome classes and CSS colors.

It would be nice to add a selection of icons as in plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-font-awesome/ and color selection as in plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/dco-shortcodes-menu/.

P.S. If you will properly prepare plugin for localization, I can help with translation to Russian language :).

Difficult for a casual user

Perfectly Integrates latest font awesome icons with your wordpress site as well as adds an Icon insert button in Tiny MCE wordpress editor.
