jay-dogg2006 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 What is a favicon? Favicons are the little icons that show next to bookmarks and in the address bar of most browsers. Favicons are 16 pixels square. Upload a 16 x 16 pixel PNG . This favicon maker supports alpha transparency. Once you create your favicon.ico file, upload it to the root directory of your website and put the following code in your header.php making sure that the link is below the tag Here is an example of a favicon: there are .ico image makers out there to help you just google : favicon.ico +1 rep if ya use it :) Quote

Well, when I look at stuff on the internet, I cite where I got it. Otherwise it's called plagiarism. You can look that word up at www.dictionary.com because I know they don't teach those kind of words in 7th grade. Even though he didn't claim it was his, it's still classified as plagiarism. And you shouldn't be telling people to "shut your mouth" when you don't know jack shit about anything. Quote
YoungGold Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Re: Favicons Set Up to be honest i dont care if you come here flashing your big words around. why dont you respect what some people are doing. and be greatfull because honestly there only trying to earn respect and help others. i admit it i was talking to jamie on msn and he told me first as i took ages looking for this and yet he found it in a matter or minutes so he told me what to do and then he posted it in forums. INCASE anyone else had trouble finding it and was unsure of what to do. Quote
Z?v?? Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Re: Favicons Set Up I wasn't saying anything about it dumbass. All I was saying is that he needs to give credit to the person he copied that shit off of. So quit being a fag and realize what you're saying. Quote

mikemastah Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 Re: Favicons Set Up I use a PNG favicon but it doesn't show in IE so I'm guessing you'll need a .ico for IE, am I right? Quote
