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.

    This weblog now sports a brand new favicon, instead of the default one provided by blojsom, thanks to this page.
    Thanks also to

    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

    [...] Creating a favicon is a pain. I somehow don’t like to work in that 16×16 area. It’s too small. More over they don’t serve much purpose however I was partially persuaded by friends to create one. After getting some more inspiration from Matt Cutts, it was time to find the easiest way out. 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. [...]
