A Favicon!

Archive: 11 posts


I love everything on this site so far and I have a little suggestion.:arg:

What about a lovely Favicon?
I could be the logo of LBPC but it also could be something else.

I really think we need a Favicon, a LBP fansite isn't a real LBP fansite without a LBP-ish Favicon.

So, do you think we need a cool LBP-ish favicon for LittleBigPlanetCentral?

It appears the favicon was in the PNG format, which has more limited browser support (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon#File_format_support) than the more standard ICO format, so I just converted it.

Well, I still can't see it nor in the tab nor in the URL.
I'm using Internet Explorer, maybe that's why I can't see it.

I'm using Internet Explorer, maybe that's why I can't see it.

Kind of - IE has a somewhat brain-damaged design with regards to favicon storage. In order to get IE to recognize that it's changed you need to...


Open "Tools" -> "Internet Options"
On the first tab labelled "General", click the "Delete..." button in the "Browsing History" section.
Tick "Temporary Internet Files" and "History", and ensure all other boxes are not ticked.
Click the "Delete" button, then shutdown IE and restart.


See this blog entry (http://jeffcode.blogspot.com/2007/12/why-doesnt-favicon-for-my-site-appear.html) for more info.

Ok, thanks!
You can close this thread now because there is a favicon already and we don't need a new one.

EDIT: It works, now I can see the awesome Favicon!
