a thought:
I use mozilla firefox to peruse nyspeed. firefox’s bookmarks, like many other browsers, support a small logo that inserts into the browser bar when the site is displayed, and also displays on the bookmark dropdown.
not only does this add a little class, but it’s nice when you are trying to find a bookmark in 150+ bookmarks (bookmarking a bookmark? hmmmmm…)
just a new idear. if someone knows what format said logo needs to be in, I can create one with the yield sign and squiggle arrow.

Do a little search on favicon.ico - it has to be in .ico format to work.
I’ve done these a few times, myself.

no quick edits?
anyway, thanks pumice. always wondered where that .ico format came from, it’s not an export out of flash, freehand, illustrator, ps, etc. :tup:

my understanding is it was originally an IE thing? so it should work in IE. i don’t see it in firefox though…
