Create a favicon

Computer Repair and Consulting Service TIPS

To make a favicon, you first need a gif or jpg from which to work. You can either whip those up yourself at free graphics sites like FlamingText or CoolText, or simply use one of the many bazillions available for free at IconArchive or the Icon Browser.

Creator or save your gif or jpg to your desktop. Remember where you put it. Next, (and here’s the secret goodie!), you go to
Favicon Creator
Dynamic Drive Favicon Creator

You can simply then use their free tools, select that image, and click Generate. This is what creates the image file “favicon.ico” .
Once you have your favicon.ico, you need to upload that to your website.
You’re almost done! On your website html pages, you need to add the following line:
(link rel=”shortcut icon” xhref=”/favicon.ico” mce_href=”/favicon.ico” )(change the parenthesis to brackets, of course)

and you’re done! Take a look at the ico image I just created for this blog (save the page as a favorite) and you’ll see just how effective it can be.
