Website / Forum Favicon

[Jim (Chairman)]

Chris & Danny,

I've converted the Greenacres logo into a "favicon".

A favicon is the little icon you get on the top tab of a website or the bookmark icon.

Currently the Greenacres website shows this:

If you upload this file to the right place on the website design, you'll get a nice little green Greenacres logo.

There are instructions of how to use in the ReadMe.txt file...

Thanks Jim

When I did the website in HTML it did always have a favicon.
For the last couple of years though, I've been using a content management system, so can't just pop the lines into the HTML.
They look good though, ta. I'll do some research as to how I use them in Joomla. (Just not sure when).

There you go Jim

Adding the file to the server root seesm to be showing it on most modern browsers. 

I'm sure that will enhance everyones life now

Chris,

Excellent! Every little helps....

BTW, just noticed this on the forum stats:

Cheers!

If we want to go the whole hog, Jim, we should have a favicon with a clear background, not a white one

Chris,

Good point, so here is one!

[Chairman]

Well I've replaced the icon, can't see any difference, yet. It may take some time to filter through though.

[Jim (Chairman)]

Chris,

Yes, I found I had to restart Firefox and clear the browser cache to force the favicon to reload.

A quick Shif+F5 should update it Jim.

PS - I've just switched to to the 3D badge (with a clear background)  to match the website logo.

Very nice, Chris....
