Address Bar Icon??

[Nodz86]

Had this thought the other day and thought I'd ask about it.

 

On other sites they have a custom icon next to the address in the address bar, on the browsing tab and in your favourites (i.e. vodafone has a vodafone logo) but all we have is a standard icon. Heres a pic showing what I'm on about, obviously this is in IE so not to sure whether any other browsers use them or not.

Would this be a good thing to add to the site?? Also thought we could have a compatition to create one as its just a 16x16 pixels and be saved as an .ico format (Windows Icon File).

 

Just a thought, let me know what you think.

This is called a favicon ^_^, and there is one, but, it doesnt show at times :)

 

still, a competition may be good.

Not on IE or BT browser, the pic in the 1st post is from IE. Looks like in making a suggestion I've found a problem or its just me as always.

 

Edit:

Turkey you could've edited that down as the pics are quite small

When expanding the image from thumbnail, also click the four arrow at the bottom left of the big image to make it full-size.

Weird, the icon appears in FF apparently, but I can't see it here on IE :p

[Nodz86]

Strange, does anyone use browsers apart from IE, BT or FF so we can see if it is just IE and BT with the problem??

I'll try with google chrome E: There isn't a favicon at all :D

[Pherelas]

I'm on chrome and it shows up fine.

 

Can try on opera if you want but thats on laptop.

My bad- I did not saw the tab on top.

Yes it would be nice if we get a icon

OK, boys and girls, please sit down on the comfy cushions, I'm going to tell you a story! :)

 

 

Once upon a time, a little boy started using Internet Explorer for going on the inter-web. Then suddenly his door was kicked down and everyone started laughing at him! Then he noticed, he was the only human! Every(one) laughing were red foxes!

 

 

lol, I confuse myself too! :D

[hesonly5]

Oh yay, a story! I just loove stories.
