How to Steal FavIcons from Websites
Do you see a little face near my blog URL (in front of http)? That is a favicon. You can create a favicon like this entering in Google search bar terms like: create a favicon, favicon generator, favicon from pics, jpeg to favicon, etc.
It will return thousands of results, most of them are online tools so you don’t even need to install a software on your computer. What is really hard to find is a favicon generator which can make favicons with transparent background, which I like the most. Also, you can search for animated favicons if you like that ones. There is another way to create a favicon – using photoshop – the hardest one because you’ll need to crop a picture, to work on colors/luminosity/contrast and other things and after all to save it in favicon format.
The easy method to have the desired favicon is to steal one. You enter in one website and you get in love with it’s favicon. What can you do to have it? To steal a favicon, all you need to do is type “/favicon.ico” after the URL of a website. Will be something like this:
http://www.websiteaddresss.com/favicon.ico
Right click on the image, save as on your folder and copy it in public_html directory on you web server. Sometimes is require to clear your browser cookies/cache prior to see the favicon in the right place :)
Simple, huh? :P
