Creating a Favicon

January 26, 2005

This web site did a better job creating a Favicon.ico file for me than I could in Photoshop and Graphic Converter.

    Worked perfectly!! You came to my rescue — the favicon that I had made was pixelated, and didn’t look good at all, but there version came out perfectly. Awesome link share Alex!

    New Favicon.
    I found this cool link via Alex King. It’s a nifty tool to allow you to create a Favicon easily. :)

    So now I updated my site to use my old userimage from Livejournal.com

After some research and reading stuff at ProBlogger, Photo Matt and Alex King, I decided to use the favicon generator at Dynamic Drive as it allowed me to create icon in multiple sizes. [...]
