favicon

Time to revisit the favicon for websites.  I always forget how to do this one..

The first part is pretty easy.  Upload your starting image to http://www.favicon.cc/?.  Pretty self explanatory.
The next step is putting it in the head of your html files.  Here is the link statement:  <link rel='shortcut icon' type='image/x-icon' href='/favicon.ico' />  Place the favicon.ico in the root directory of your site.

If your favorite favicon won't update, change the href to force it with href='/favicon.ico?v=2'.  Your browser won't know what hit it.
