Ok, you know those little icons that are to the left of a web address? |_ http://www.domain.com_| Well that is called a favicon, folks. If you want one, simply do the following:

1.) Make sure your favicon is in .ico format. Name it favicon.ico
2.) Upload the favicon.ico to the same folder as your main index.html or index.php or index.asp, whatever. Basciaaly, you should have:
http://domain.com/blah/favicon.ico http://domain.com/blah/index.___<–PHP,HTML,ASP, whatever you have.

Optional Step,If Your Favicon Doesn’t Load.
3.) Put this into the head tag of your index page:
CODE
<link rel=”icon” href=”favicon.ico” type=”image/x-icon”>
<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”favicon.ico” type=”image/x-icon”>

That’s it!
