Forum Favicon by John Anderton on 03-28-2006 at 12:04 PM

My pc had crashed and i seemed to have lost some of my data ... i was having some dodgy problems with signing in but they seem to be ok now ... One of the first things i noticed when i came back were that the forum icon has seemed to change to the new MP!L logo :cheesy:

I just thought i should let the concerned person know that it looks good but it the exclamation mark ( ! ) in the plus logo looks pixelated to me (the thing that happens when you compress a large image into a shorter one)

I am no graphics expert but would blurring help. What ever be it, i think it could be fixed.

I still see the old icon.
I found this where the favicon is saved, is this what you are talking about?

I agree, the Exclamation mark does seem a little pixelated around the edges, I think it does aswell for the outside of the butterfly (if thats what it is).

I pieced together some of a 48x48 icons within the beta to create the logo in 48x48. I generated a 16x16 image from that icon and ended up with this (Although, it looks a bit more blurred on the internet. Save it to your PC and then it will look how it supposed to)...Is this what you imagined?

If you still see the old one goto shoutbox.menthix.net/favicon.ico and refresh

I think it crash was responsible for my refresh cause i lost all my cache, saved passwords and history in the crash. How long has it been ?

Forcing a refresh of the favicon works
And yes, it looks a little off.

That's the whole point of this thread really :undecided:

And indeed the logo does look a bit odd but I honestly think it doesn't matter.

They changed the image OOOOO.... There is nuthing wrong with your computer.

RE: Little icon by WDZ on 03-29-2006 at 05:04 AM

I was messing with the MP!L icon last night, and I figured I might as well try making a new favicon while I was at it.

I ripped it directly from the original icon set that sock gave me. Keep in mind that it's only 16x16 pixels, so you're not going to get great quality...

RE: Little icon by Chris4 on 03-29-2006 at 03:05 PM

I don't think it looks that bad TBH

I did say you could move the thread. And i did write a side note to remove that note when moving the thread

And hence the pm title from haydn

And why is the thread called "little icon" instead of "forum favicon" like i named it
