SRF needs a favorite icon

Post by **Ryoko** » Mon Aug 28, 2006 5:24 pm

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'm guessing it should like this:

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

They are .gif because photobucket doenst allow .ico

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

Wow, I remember going to that site to fill in my html blanks when I first started. The site has changed alot!

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

Does it not have to be 16x16?

I know that, I'm saying the icos I've ever used/made have been 16x16 to fit in the address bar.

Chaud · Post by **Chaud** » Sun Sep 10, 2006 3:44 am

Yeah, the ones in the address bar are 16x16....

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?

Draquish · Post by **Draquish** » Sun Sep 10, 2006 2:43 pm

just thinking out-typing :roll:

How is this?

Bakemaster · Post by **Bakemaster** » Mon Sep 11, 2006 3:45 am

Enough foolishness. I got your favicon right here.

Nuklear · Post by **Nuklear** » Mon Sep 11, 2006 6:11 pm

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:

Thought I would ress this and remind Ryoko...not sure what you want us to do...
