I need help with my website
So, I have a website, (http://super19.weebly.com and yes, it is approved by the ST) and I need a little help.
Safari users might not know what I'm talking about, but you know the tiny icons in bookmarks, and usually next to the url?
Example: http://i41.tinypic.com/suww40.png
See the tiny icons? Like the S next to "Scratch User" and the F next to Facebook?
How to you make those icons?

Re: I need help with my website
Those are favicons. You need to upload a 16x16 .ico, which you can create in GIMP, to the root directory of your site, /. So the URL to the file will be http://super19.weebly.com/favicon.ico, and it must be this to work. 
I don't know if favicons work with Weebly though.

Add this to the head:
Code:
<link rel="icon"
type="image/png"
href="http://example.com/myicon.png">Find more about them at w3.org
Programming is an art...
Goodbye, Scratch. I am leaving because of the exams coming up at our school, though I'll check the forums once or twice a week.

I believe there is a setting somewhere in Weebly that allows you to set a favicon since you can't upload anything directly to your Weebly site.

There is, but it requires Weebly Pro, which, judging by the footer at the end of their site, they don't have.
