As in title. Some websites when I add it to my favourites folder has additional icon. How to do it for mine?
1. You need a favicon size 16x16, although mine is 32x32 and works fine 2. Leave your favicon name as favicon.ico 3- upload your favicon to your root directoy and you are done! - Most browsers recognize favicons automatically, however there are some points to keep in mind: - Favicons are not any icon that you pick anywhere. You have to create one accordingly, although some ordinary favicons work if renamed - Favicons can be forced to be displayed by adding this code into the head section of your pages: <LINK REL="[B]SHORTCUT ICON[/B]" HREF="[B][URL]http://www.yoursite.ext /favicon.ico[/URL][/B]"> Code (markup): There are several online favicon generators or you can download a free one such as Picture to Icon converter, although IrfanView is the easy and faster way to convert ordinary icons to windows-format icon, which is the favicon standard.
You can download a free plugin to create/save .ico files in Photoshop at telegraphics.com.au/sw/. Very handy.
Hello, dargre. If you are not inclined to draw your own icon, you can choose one from any of these sites: www.iconbuffet.com www.icongalore.com www.iconbase.com
Here is a site where you can create your icon uploading an image (is much better if you can resize the image using photoshop or other graphic program and upload an small image, they resize any image size, but the results will be better if you do it). www chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/ (sorry, can't post live links yet).
