View Full Version : Favicons
Can we have a favicon please! :thinkerg:
Martyn has just done one for BB.
I tried shrinking the BCUK logo down but I'm not sure if it works.:-|

It's an Icon thingy (http://www.britishblades.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5570)! :-)
Good idea. I've been meaning to suggest it for a while. I'll get on with that.
Always found them devilish hard to do effectively though as they're so small. :wink:

I don't think this is actually that badhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/sjlight/favicon.gif
but it's maybe a little difficult to tell what it is.

That's generally the problem! :wink: It's not bad though ...
Actually, trying it in place, I think it looks better than I thought it would..

How do you make them? I want some!
Erm, that pic was just me playing with Photoshop.:wink:
Tony or one of the moderators will have to add it to the site for it to work. Also, I'm using Mozilla - not sure if it works for other browsers.
It should work in most up-to-date browsers :wink:

Did this ever make it on to the to-do list? ;)

I suspect Tony will be waiting till he is using the latest forum software. I recently just found out about favicons and set if up on the SotP forum but can't get it to work on the main site :rolleyes:
Of course it would help is I knew what I was doing ;)
I'd forgotten all about this, I'll add it to the list for the updated site, thanks for the reminder ;)

I just chopped up the header img and created the attached png.
Save that and then upload it to http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/.
That will then create the favicon.ico I would have done that bit but cannot attach that type of file extension.
Once you have the favicon.ico just upload it to the website root http://www.bushcraftuk.com/ and that should do it.
you guys speak such lovely computer speak which leaves me none the wiser regards dave
