Ok there, optimized for best viewing Download: http://7te.org/myfiles/sheild-fav.ico This is how it will look in address bar: - Thanks
That's the general idea, but you used my original image to make it and the problem with my original source image is that it has a lot of crap around the edges that make it look bad when you simply scale it down and run some filters. Keep the entries coming - I need higher quality please
It's a little plain. And you need to keep to the aspect ratio of the original shield graphic. Whilst your shield uses more of the square canvas of the favicon, it looks a bit odd when it is short and wide
It's nice looking, but it's overly complicated for a favicon, and it doesn't keep to the requested sizes, and there are no non-animated versions.
You're the winner. Please PM me with your PayPal details. It was VERY, VERY close between you and Digital Designer, but in the end I believe yours was very slightly clearer.
