Here is the definition of a Favicon from Wikipedia: "A favicon (short for favorites icon), also known as a shortcut icon, website icon, URL icon, or bookmark icon is a 16×16 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage.[1] A web designer can create such an icon and install it into a website (or webpage) by several means, and most graphical web browsers will then make use of it. Browsers that provide favicon support typically display a page's favicon in the browser's address bar and next to the page's name in a list of bookmarks. Browsers that support a tabbed document interface typically show a page's favicon next to the page's title on the tab. Some programs allow the user to select an icon of their own from the hard drive and associate it with a website."
I had been trying to put up my own Favicon without much success. Finally..... tonight I did get it to appear!! I had to look at the directions Happy Blogging again. Being that I a more of a visual learner, I scrolled down to the images to see where and more importantly what to put on the Edit HTML page. I was able to make my little icon at ICONJ This site provides free generating and hosting of the image. See "Anonymous Favicon Hosting" for more details.
I love my little money tree/Favicon!!
