I followed the instructions, but I did not understand at all. How do I get a url with a .ico for my favicon? I know how to add it to the website once I just have the favicon url/link.

This is the image that I want to put as my favicon: Favicons help me please Favicon2

ACP/General/configuration/general/3rd line is Forum Favicon

upload your icon to fileden(I think they are the only ones that host .ico files) then put image link in the Forum Favicon text box.
You don't have to have it in .ico file. I used a png file for mine. Need to make it 16 x 16 pixels

Make sure you click save of course

Do you have an account at FileDen?
Go here and open one.
http://www.fileden.com
After you open an account, you'll see in the menu "Upload"
Just click that and do what it says. After you upload it, they give you the url address of the file you uploaded.

OR

I uploaded it to my account, here's the url address

May I remind you that double/triple posting isn't tolerated unless separated by 24 hours (Use the edit button) Wink

Flamin, IE doesn't really support it. Try Firefox, it shows the favicon.

I'm sorry for double and triple posting, can I post different things though? Well anyways here is what I was going to say:

Ok, I have internet explorer, how do I make it so that internet explorer will show the favicon? Is there some setting that I need to change?
