Remember to run rake assets:precompile in your production environment.

If you need are deploying with Capistrano, you can use this recipe:

before "deploy:symlink", "assets:precompile"

namespace :assets do
  desc "Compile assets"
  task :precompile, :roles => :app do
    run "cd #{release_path} && rake RAILS_ENV=#{rails_env} assets:precompile"
  end
end
