Action ListGet yourself a favicon or 'favourites icon'
Have you ever wondered how you go about getting one of those fancy little icons that appear in the address bar and in your Favourites list for your website? It's actually quite easy, with the help of an image conversion utility and one line of HTML code. To get a 'favicon', you first need to create a 16 pixel x 16 pixel image with the filename/file extension 'favicon.ico'. You can use one of many online conversion utilities to create this file - here's one that I used that converts JPG files to ICO files: http://www.cgi-interactive-uk.com/jpeg2ico.html Once you have your ICO file, you need to upload it to the root web directory of your website. Most browsers will look for this file automatically when your website is called, however, you can add the following piece of code within the <head> tag of your pages to ensure that your favicon appears correctly: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://[your-domain]/favicon.ico"> The favicon makes your website look more appealing and professional, and it will help customers to remember your brand.
