To "favicon.ico" or not to "favicon.ico", that is the question :)
http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/favicon.shtml
Like Shakespear, is it better to have a 'favicon.ico' file or utilize the 404 traffic? Since the stuff is bookmarked anyway? |

I don't see why you couldn't utilize the 404 traffic even if there was a favicon.ico present? Or am i missing something?

Totally don't get this. The only thing that will happen if you don't have one, is that it will show up in your logs as a missing file. Your 404 traffic won't be affected. If you don't want it to show up as missing, drop favicon.ico in your root, or if you want to track different pages, name them all something different (favicon1.ico, ebonygallery.ico, whatever.ico, etc) and put the favicon code in the header of each page, that points to wherever you put that particular favicon.

fav icon 100%... many browsers show them now even if not in favs... within 1 year I bet IE picks up on that game...

I love them!!!!!!! Lots of viewers of my site have commented how they think it's cool and how it makes my site stand out in their bookmarks.
The thing I don't get is why the icon seems to disappear after a few days. Every site I bookmark with a favicon will show up initially in my bookmarks, and a few days later it's gone ![]() |

I think they disappear when the cache is cleared. Check your internet settings. |

Now if that would work with AOL's browser. AOL has this sucky browser that stores the last time you visited the site. Even refreshing won't bring up the new stuff. You've gotta shut AOL down, reboot your computer. Most AOL folks leave their connection on for hours or days. |
