Dog Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I could knock you one up but it would cost.It does make the forum look cheap - are the techies in Archant too lazy or unskilled?Hands up if you needed to google what a favicon is?I herewith start the France Forum needs a favicon campaign.

Théière Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 It could use more work than that but OK I say yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Whats wrong with Bookmarks ? does virtually the same job.Personally I'd prefer some attention to getting Safari to function fully and a fix for the slowing down bug that seems to kick-in on a regular basis..

Dog Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 I made one for my brothers company a few months ago - I gave him the choice of twenty and he is now happily faviconed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I'm sure it used to have one, when it was just Living France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chancer Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Yeah and how is it that a free forum can look cheap, that £10 per hour for a voluntary retiree who wants to escape the monetary materialist rat race is derisory (because he used to earn £75) when most of the working population of France are on less than that and stlil have to cow-tow to the banks?Its a funny world!Now what is a favicon?

woolybanana Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 We have Dog, so why do we need another favicon? He is our favourite one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a some skill in producing a memorable image at so low low a resolution.I never said I earned £75 per hour that's what I offered to charge the bank for my time for sorting out their problem.I explained to the bank that was a heavily discounted rate. I would have charged more if I was in business.This seems to be preying on your mind - what's the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 The mod/admin team seem to be in hiding, so I'll try and give a serious answer to the question.Many of the sister Archant Specialist mags have one - e.g. http://www.canalboat.co.uk/. On the other hand, none of the France-related mags do.When you go to any of the magazine forums, the favicon disappears. My guess is that this is because all of the forums share common databases.
