    no problem, i'll add 'em here and enlarge the poll.



    oh yeah, had to resize #1, it was 20x19 before. if the submitting author would like to resize themselves, let me know and i'll change the above image.







    polls are fun.

    Yep, they're 16x16.



    here's another version of the "porthole" design with an inverted center so the "AI" stands out more.

    For me, it's a toss up between 1 & 3.

    What do you guys think of these (some of them are revise):



    Fire Flame ()

    Agent ()

    Bee ()

    Apple 3D()

    Apple 3D with a mask()

    AI Simple()

    AI Simple with a mask()

    AI Simple with a bee and a mask()



    Thank you Logan for the suggestion.

    I like the first one, but it would only work if the background was transparent.

    If you are referring to: ?only if the "AI" was white?, that suggestion would be Logan Cale?s, not mine. Or maybe I missed something?

    Okay, I have another one too!

    we're having some fun aren't we?





    WHITE BACKGROUND VERSION





    BLUEGREY BACKGROUND VERSION





    This favicon is based on the "logo" that's been developing over in the t-shirt thread....based on the AI porthole scheme in the upper righthand side of AI.



    Please add this to your voting if you like it!

    I love your bee and mask favicon, mandolux. BTW: I used your mandolux-vidrio-ltx-01-1024.jpg background for about a year, and still swap it in from time to time.



    One thing that we need to consider in choosing a favicon is how it looks both on a light background (e.g. in the menubar) and on a dark background (e.g. on a tab in Camino).

    Thank you so much Escher. I've would like you to know that the favicons I'm doing are specifically intended to be used with tabs - especially Netscape 7+. Unfortunately, I can't test them with Safari right now (I don't have 10.2+), I would really appreciate if people would test them and tell me what they see - maybe a photo of the favicon in action would be sufficient.



    Here is a simple test.



    (I still don't know if this kind of transparency/favicons are viewable correctly in the Windows/Linux/UNIX platforms and their favicon-friendly browsers).

    Stupid question but how do you even add a favicon to a site that you have created? I had never seen them before I got Safari.



    art jrk



    And which browsers can even view them? Platforms?

    Add code like this between the head tags in your HTML code:



    <link rel="icon" href="http://forums.appleinsider.com/images/favicon.ico"; type="image/x-icon" />

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://forums.appleinsider.com/images/favicon.ico"; type="image/x-icon" />



    ...replacing, of course, the path with your own.

    Mozilla and Netscape 7 load them properly on both Mac and Windows. Safari loads them properly. Internet Explorer6 for Windows and Chimera/Camino for Mac do NOT load them properly. Rather, they ignore the code in the HTML and just jump straight to a hard coded location ("/favicon.ico") instead.

    So far I like the AI-in-porthole (the inverted one) and /mandolux/'s bee.
