Favicon for news.ycombinator
13 comments
Created? You sure you didn't hit "view image"? :-)
As I said, it is a q&d .ico created from the image. I didn't change anything, just cropped out a few pixels to make it 16x16 and saved it as an .ico file.
I know, I was just teasing you... hence the emoction.
I use web-based icon generators, here's two I bookmarked that are pretty useful:

I used ppmtowinicon to make the ourdoings.com favicon. No need to boot into Windows. Thanks to utilities like that plus WINE for IE testing, I haven't had to boot Windows since I got the XP web publishing wizard integration done.
See the problem caused by /favicon.ico not returning 404 at the moment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28315

Cool. It doesn't show up in FireFox for news.ycombinator.com though, even with a hard refresh.
it is a different domain ;-)
Yeah (well, a different subdomain ;-) ), but http://news.ycombinator.com/favicon.ico redirects to the icon at http://ycombinator.com/favicon.ico . It seems the browser don't follow the redirect (IE doesn't seem to either).
Hi there. Really selfish post but I'd quite like it if news.ycombinator could provide a favicon. The only reason for this is so that my bookmarks toolbar doesn't have to have any text just icons for each site. Sorry it's a bit OCD but it'd really make my day. Cheers.
