Silkroad Forums needs a Favorite icon for internet browsers.

This is a 32 x 32 .ico file, named 'favicon.ico'.

Discuss / suggest.

couldn't it just be the little icon that comes up on your start bar?

Uhm, something with SRF related? Maybe a golden S orso? Or, a small flag-like thing, like the server flags we have?

I'll see what I can do, as I have the program and the photoshop plugin to make it.

Edit:

Can't save it on my photobucket, so its currently saved as a gif, but I can change that. Most likely would have to email you the file if it is chosen

Maybe it would be best to have a SRF logo designed for multiple purposes, then just scale it down?

yeah and there is a photoshop plug-in that you can download that will allow the .ico extention. Otherwise there is a program available from http://www.lissaexplains.com that can make it as well

U don't have to go thru the trouble to make it .ico. .ico is only an extension that allows web browers to display the favicon. Just save it as any image format, and then when Ryoko downloads it, he can resave it as a .ico file and loads it to the appropriate directory.

3rd one has potential cuz looks nice but really, it looks like something supposed to be above the decoration, like SRF or something

True, but if you right-click on one of the favorites, then click properties, you see a bigger version of the icon. Perhaps he means that? :)

I don't think it needs to be anything more than the leaf. It's a nice simplistic little img.

The only thing I might change is the color to one of the the colors you attribute 2 sro: gold, tan, etc, w/e :arrow:
