Title: New Icon
Post by: Blunt on May 15, 2010, 09:54:28 PM
It'd be nice to have a spanky new Icon in the address bar, to go with our spanky new forum.
Mine is currently a black square with a pretty basic yellow outline of a skull, I'm sure we could make summat a bit more exciting.
I'll gladly have a go if someone will point me at a good progam for creating icons;
Or one of the forum artists could come up with one.

good idea.  Anyone got any recommendations? (or want to do it themselves?)

Pinched this from our Facebook page. I have no idea where it originated from. Can be made into smaller sizes if required. Can also loose the text and just leave the skull and lightning.

Dunno why, and it's probably too big for the little icon, but I've always liked this style...

It's 32 x 32 and i've installed a new one.  What do you think?  (might need to restart browser/refresh cache etc)

That's great Whitey, just what I had in mind.
Now, how do I get it on my toolbar?
Edit: just opened managed bookmarks/bookmark toolbar and it sorted itself out :D
