Broken images in selectlist demo due to Wikimedia thumbnail policy #148

Hi team!

I was looking at the selectlist demo (/selectlist/index.html) and noticed that all the browser icons inside the dropdown menu are completely broken (they fail to load).

Cause:
The HTML uses direct hotlinks to Wikipedia thumbnails (e.g. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Safari_browser_logo.svg/1200px-Safari_browser_logo.svg.png). Wikimedia now returns an HTTP 400 Bad Request for these specific sizes due to their new CDN policies on arbitrary thumbnail scaling.

Proposed Fix:
I can download these SVG/PNG icons, place them locally in an images/ folder inside the selectlist directory, and update the CSS background-image paths so they are hosted directly in this repo and never break again.

I'll open a PR for this shortly!
