Odd question about GG icon

Postby Thoth Amon » Wed Nov 02, 2011 12:21 pm

I've noticed that most websites I visit change the icon in my bookmarks list to website icon - for instance, ebay looks like ebay, amazon has the swishy a thingie, Dragonsfoot has the DF logo. Goblinoid Games doesn't have this. I've looked in Firefox, Chrome and IE and I just have a blank spot there. It has been this way for as long as I have been visiting the GG forums. Is there any reason why this is?

I believe you're referring to the "Favicon" that appears in front of the URL. If that is the case, this just means GG doesn't have a favicon setup on their server. They're optional, and not all sites have them.

Dan has one for the MAIN Goblinoid Games website with the letter "G". He would just need to do the same for the forums with a line of code after the <head> tag...
