Creating a favicon

For Stew and all the other bloggers out there...

Favicon: also known as a website icon, or shortcut icon; it is an icon associated with a particular website or webpage.

Example below: click to make larger!



Step 1: find an image

Step 2: create an Favicon.ico image
-Use this site to create it: IconJ
a. upload image, then click the "Upload it!" button.

Step 3: You can either download it or it have them host the picture.
Just to make things simple...have them host the image...copy the code under the "Host It at IconJ.com: (Direct Link) section"


Step 4. Here's where it gets just a little tricky. You will need to edit your Blogger template. I got a little nervous doing this the first time I did it and you should always back up (SAVE IT!!!) your template before you change it!

Ok...so go to your blog and click on "Layout" in the Dashboard. Then click the "Edit HTML" tab.

Now you will need to search for the word “title” , this should be inside the header tags. You should find something that looks like this:


Just after that line, paste the text you copied from Icon J's in Step 3. After you have pasted it, click "Save Template" then refresh your blog and KA-BOOM!!! you should see a little icon next to your web address!

If you are having problems, leave a comment and tell me...

If you get it to work let me know as well...

Live Long and Prosper,
