Well, the forums seem to have a favicon, why can't the TIGSource homepage have one (e.g. the same one)? The TIGdb could use an icon as well. I have all my regularly visited sites as bookmark buttons and TIGSource stares back at me with an ugly white sheet of paper (Firefox standard)... :-(

Update: Something's very wrong with the forums... When I tried to post this topic the board gave me an error and now I have apparently made a double-post... When I try to delete the second post I get another DB-error... Apparently the MySQL server is the culprit in this case.

There's a little workaround for Firefox that I use when a website has no favicon:

  • Add the website with the favicon you like (say, the forums) to your bookmarks.
  • Load it, so that the favicon will appear in the bookmarks list.
  • Right click on the bookmark > Properties > change the URL so that it points to the other website (TIGS).

That's it. The favicon of the first website will now appear on the bookmark for the other. Wink

Obviously this is far easier than adding a favicon to the main site. ;-)

Oh c'mon - if there's a favicon for the forums then it's all a matter of copying one tiny file from one place to another. ;-)

Sure. Smiley

What I meant is we can't do that.



... Huh?
