A favicon is the small image that is associated with a website. It will be displayed on your address bar, tabs in tabbed browsers and in your bookmark list.

Creating an outstanding favicon becomes a very important part for website branding. The basic guidelines for design a good favicon are here follows..

1. create a favicon (preferably 16 x16 px)

2. upload favicon.ico to root directory

3. copy and paste the code to header section

<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”favicon.ico” type=”image/x-icon” />

4. thats it..! finished!

There are hundreds of favicon generators available online.. Most of them make your icons dirty! I surfed through net to find the best favicon generator online, tried around 50 generators.. At last I found the best tool (in my exp.).. Take a look..

This tool is developed by webscriptlab.com and I think it is the best favicon generator online.
