Pretty easy request - Bookmark/Tab icon

(1/2) > >>

David C:
There is an icon associated with many web pages that appears next to a bookmark or a tab.  I would appreciate it if you guys added this for the forge, as I keep my favorite bookmarks on a toolbar on my browser.  Having it appear as a generic icon makes it hard to distinguish from the other 50% of the web that also have the generic icon.

Here is more info on how to do this.

Make a tiny image, no larger than 16x16 pixels with no more than 16 colors.

Name the icon favicon.ico

Put this icon into each directory (folder) on your site that you want people to be able to bookmark.


From http://www.hostingct.com/design/tutorials/favicon.shtml.  This web page also has links to .ico editors.  If you guys want me to make you an icon, I certainly will help. I imagine I'd do the "anvil R."

Thank you for all you do.

I seem to remember that Forge had some sort of icon before the latest technical overhaul. But it's probably best if you make a new one, David - it's not that much work, and if you send a ready-made icon to Vincent, he'll be that much more prompt to execute the improvement.

Eero's super correct. If you wait for me to get to it, it'll be a wait! Send me a cool little graphic and easy instructions, it'll happen much, much quicker.

I donŽt know how big these should be, tell me and iŽll resize.

lumpley:
I can't deal conveniently with the .png just now. Maybe resave it as .gif or .ico?
