Simple and efficient ways for creating a favicon

In this post I explore some simple and efficient ways of creating a favicon:

  1. Specify a PNG image as a favicon (in newer browsers only) by adding the following code in your HTML page:
    <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”/favicon.png” type=”image/x-icon” />

  2. DeGraeve.com
    www.degraeve.com/favicon
    This website allows you to upload a PNG image which will transform it a pixelized favicon. You may edit the pixels once the image is uploaded.
