I know it has to be 16 x 16px, has to be .ico, and the piece of code you have to add between the and .

but, you need a favicon first. how can I make a clear image of 16 x 16px? when I try it, it's very blurry and not clear what it is...

can anyone help me?

Try resampling down the size using Nearest Neighbour instead of Bicubic or whatever you're using now? That should make the pixels crisp. The best way though is to draw it pixel by pixel using the pencil tool by hand!

nearest neighbour isn't really working very well (PS3) but that's my opinion..

I'll try to draw it... thanks for the tip!

don't forget it has to be 16 colors as well

I'd help you out, but I don't have a clue what you're talking about. *grin* Seriously...I don't have a clue. *grin*

EDIT: spelling

uh?

@Nathan: yeah, right :P

@ wavelength: thanks for the links!

I tried something, but not worth mentioning ( ;-) ) later I'll try to start with a bigger file and resize it, that's a better way.

Try this site, it allows you to make your own and saves it.

Sweet Link, that was wicked easy..> Took longer to load photoshop than it did to make the icon and load it to the site. Thanx (even though Im not the one that asked L()L )
