How Bout A Favicon

[Phil]

it may be unnessesary but the sit needs a favicon.its the little icon on the side of the address in the address bar.

you could us the gp32 icon or an X icon.

All info on doing it is here: http://www.techtv.com/callforhelp/answerst...2296609,00.html

 

[nerd of nerds]

yes, i think a gp32 OR the little x (see here:

) would work quite well...

 

[finty]

there is one in firefox, its like a little joypad or something.

Yes, I was wondering what that was meant to be, it's clearly not a GP32.

 

[GPJosh]

Yeah, but an internet explorer icon would be better considering that's what most people use. :rolleyes:

 

[Phil]

im using firefox and its a world icon.

 

[kknd_cf]

I'm using firefox and it's little gamepad icon to. Does the browser know it's a gaming site or something like that?

 

[Mosch]

I use Firefox too and there's no special icon. However, I would second a Favicon, not that it would be really useful or anything, but nice and not too much work.

 

[raven]

Using Firefox and I also get the gamepad icon.

 

[skysnapper]

Firefox here too looks like a snes pad..

firefox the gp32x'ers choice

Firefox, of course, and its the Game Pad & Hand, from the Lik Sang ad banner.

However I think that X would be much better.

And FYI you do not need to write any code like that site says, to use a fav icon just put an icon named favicon.ico in the root directory with the html files. It will automatically be loaded as the icon when the page is loaded. In all browsers.

 

[Phil]

well admins the people have spoken, how bout less talk and more action!

ask and ye shall recieve, evidently.

I dont get anything for a fav icon anymore, its nice and blank. (I even tried it in I.E. ugg) to no avail.

However, there IS a favicon.ico file in the root directory but it seems to be corrupted. Bad header or something. Windows will display it in "thumbnail" mode but no paint program or browser will open it, it gives a "corrupt file" error.

 

[Azure]

Yeah, I don't get it anymore either.

Whoops my mistake, went on gamepark.co.uk previously. Must of stuck.

 

[Skop]

Its the tilted spiral square inside a square, a gp32 logo.

Maybe your browser loads the favicon even though its a corrupt broken file.
http://www.gp32x.de/favicon.ico try that link, download the file and try and open it in a paint program or IE or Firefox, dont work.
