Dillon Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 I think TDN should get a favicon. (Favorite Icon) That is this little bugger http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon. I think that when bookmarking pages or dragging the page out onto the desktop it would be more appealing.
Stephi Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Ooo that would be snazzy. I do like websites with those. Maybe make it Jerry.
Awesome_Paul Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 TDN has got one, Its the Red tdn next to the URL, thats the favicon
Dillon Posted August 17, 2007 Author Posted August 17, 2007 I dont see it on mine. What browser are you using?
Stephi Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Then jerry would be real teeny tiny. I don't think he'd be too small. 16X16 isn't too small for him... you'd still be able to make out who is was and it's really used for a quick identification than a descriptive picture right? I tried zooming out of a picture of Jerry or put it in Word (or the equivalent) and resize to be 16X16 pixels (approx 4.2 x 4.2mm or 0.16 x 0.16" all depending on your screen resolution really) and as long as you have a half descent picture you can still make out the picture. I can't see the TDN either
Dillon Posted August 17, 2007 Author Posted August 17, 2007 I use to be able to see it on the main site but then it went away for a while. Mabey its not IE7 compatible.
Awesome_Paul Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 I don't think it shows on IE But it deffo shows on Firefox.
Dillon Posted August 17, 2007 Author Posted August 17, 2007 Hmmm i think it should be compatible with both browsers.
Ruto Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Hmm, so that explains it. I have IE! However, I used to be able to see a yellow chia in the top bar while surfing Neopets. Not anymore, though. :/
The Big Cheese Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 TDN doesn have a favicon, but it is unfortunately only viewable on Firefox (which happens to be Ian's browser of choice) So if you're using IE, just imaging a red square like the one above, and you'll be fine. Neopets changed their favicon to a star (like the logo) when they changed their layout ;)
Ruto Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Well, I can't see the star, so they must have done something to prevent IE users from seeing it. :(
Strategos Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 I see the forums one, but not the one on the main site. Perhaps Ian could make the coding on both the same? By the way, I'm using Safari.
Dillon Posted August 17, 2007 Author Posted August 17, 2007 Wel sometimes favicons are typically saved in the .ico format.
Izzy ♥ Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 I only see the TDN one if FF... there was a short time when I saw it in IE though, no idea why. And I see the Neopets star one in both browsers...
Dillon Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 Wait I saw it in Netscape. How can you have a favicon in Netscape and not IE? XD And pretty much everyothers sites favicons work. =/ Oh well I can I can go favicon less until I go sane.
Ian Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 We do have a favicon for both the forums and main site. :) If your browser isn't picking it up... then... get Firefox. :P
Dillon Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 My mom wont let me download FF. She doesnt let me download anything.(That I dont hide. XD ooVoo. Forums software. but I cant hide a broweser.)
Zac Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 I never saw the forums one but I used to see TDN's before Y2.......Im using IE6 at the moment
Ian Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Sorry to hear that, summer's over. ;( @zac: get firefox! :P
Dillon Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 Hey Ian made a funny. XD Tis funny. Hmmm If i cant get a usb drive I cant get Firefox portable.
Ian Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 If you can't get Firefox you should convince your mom to get Firefox. :)
Dillon Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 Nope shes stubborn like me. She likes old school stuff like IE.
Zac Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Ill be gettinga new computer with FF on it in a few weeks.......not to worry ian ;)
lili Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Yeah, I've been using Firefox for the past year or so. It's about a brazillion times better than IE. *high-fives Ian*
