Many websites now-a-days do it so why not abandonia? What I am talkin about is a little icon that appears on the left of the URL. If I remeber correctly, all you do is make a .ico file, and put it in the root directory (or whatever the main directory is called). I tihnk it has to have a certain filename (I think favicon.ico) and it will appear in the address bar. My recommendation is to use the 8-bit alien/bug thing that is used as abandonias mascot.

I can see it in my address bar in Mozilla but not in IE. It doesn't show up on my tabs in Mozilla either. Looks good though! :D :ok:

Yeah, I can't figure out why it doesn't show up in tabs and why it dissapears after the tabs are changed :(

Any clues?

It appears again when you refresh the screen or go to another area on the forum. ;)

I noticed that too, my solution was to delete my Abandonia favourites and then make them again, the icon appeared then (in Firefox).

Hummm, the icon seems to only appear on the adress http://www.abandonia.com/forum/. When I return to the home forum adress after having replyied to something I seems to be sent to http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php? and then I don't see the icon.

I'm using Firefox 5.0.
I see the icon on the fast-link bar, in bookmarks and on the address bar.

Opera 7 here. Seeing no icon, but then again, I hardly ever see a page that has an icon there at all. ;)
