Blogger tricks - add a favicon to your blog

Just a quick tip if you want to personalize even further your blog (on Blogger). If you look at my url you will see the OCI logo which replaced the Blogger logo:


To do that is very simple:
Create a favicon which is a 16x16 pixels icon (it needs to have the .ico extension). To make it 16x16 I used Microsoft Office Picture Manager but I’m sure any other program would do. Once your image is the correct size then go to “Favicon from Pics“, upload your image, click on “generate favicon” and you should get the following page:

 
Click on “Download Favicon Package”, you’ll get a WinZip which once open will contain three files; .ico, .gif and .txt. Save the .ico file anywhere on your drive and then go back to your draftblogger.


From here it'll be very simple, just upload your image, preview it, save it and you'll have your own favicon!


And click here if you want to add your own stylish signature to each blog post.

Small note: just been told, thanks to @O3mer and @randomuser46, that if you use Chrome you'll see a globe instead...:(

  3. A professionally crafted business logo

    design
    is one of the greatest blessings for a company; whether it is big or small. It

    gives them an identity of their own and makes them different from others.
