Title: Favicons Post by: lynn1961 on September 26, 2005, 09:35:14 AM For those of us who are more computer "illiterate", what is a favicon? I'm referring to the current poll, since most people voted that they had no idea what you are talking about, including myself. :)
Title: Re: Favicons Post by: chineseblues on September 26, 2005, 09:55:04 AM If you have the Firefox browser (Im not sure if other browsers support it) then in the address bar you will see a little image next to the address to the site. In the case of HTGTH it's a little red thing with GR (it might be GNR but its too small for me to tell) in it. I like it alot, keep up the good work Jarmo! :beer:

Title: Re: Favicons Post by: badapple81 on September 26, 2005, 05:02:00 PM Cool, I don't think IE supports it in the address bar.
Also, I could have sworn yesterday the main page had the new GNR logo and today the old?! Is it set to alternate? ???

I noticed that too in my "favorites" listing (but not in the address bar) ... so it works with Internet Explorer too.? :yes: Just follow AH's instructions [below] and you should see it in your 'favorites' listing. Works fine for me.

I had HTGTH listed in my favorites before. I deleted it and then just re-added it, and there was the favicon! I like it! Thanks! :D
