BC has its avi in the browser. so does everyone else. My site has the ugly Internet explorer icon. How do I change it?

    go to www.iconj.com/icon_generator.php
    put up your a little icon of yours...

    Now you'll get a link

    then...
    copy this


    < link h re f='/ fav icon. ic o' rel= 'sho rtcut icon' / >

    and

    the link that you get from iconj.com....

    and place it just below the
    YOUR BLOG TITLE


    it will look like this...

    < title >YOUR BLOG TITLE < title >
    < link h ref='/ favicon. ico' rel= 'sho rtcut icon' / >

    Favicon!? right?

    IE has some problem is displaying favicon. You will need to a little work there.
    What blog platform are you using?

    I know how to do it in blogger, I don't know what platform you use. It is possibly the same method if you have access to the HTML.

    I had to put
    (link rel="shor tcut icon" h r ef="URL OF YOUR ICON AT GOOGLEPAGES" /)

    after the
    (t itle) and (/t itle) tags

    -obviously with the correct brackets. Favicons don't work in all browsers for some reason, so I've heard. The image also has to be a .ico image, you can make icons here -

    amoung other places.

    Wow!!!! Somebody screwed up the code on this thread! LOL

    I use this favicon generator. It appear that some of the generators don't work correctly with IE7.
