The lazy way to create a Favicon.ico
The favicon.ico is a small icon file that sits at the root of your website. It will display next to your website details in the browser address bar and in a Favorites/Bookmarks list. I have created a ICO file for this website which you should see in the address bar right now - it looks like this
How did I create it? It couldn't be easier:
- Use imaging software to create your image 16×16 (pixels).
- Use the online FavIcon from Pics tool to convert your image to an ICO file
- Follow the instructions from FavIcon from Pics:
- Download the ICO file
- Upload the ICO to the root folder of your website
- Insert the code in your HTML as described
Done.
