I'll be installing XP on my laptop tonight.  I've got the old dbs for my corp forum, blog, DF1AS killboard, etc. being rar'd for upload so I can download 'em soon.

I expect by the end of the week, I'll get all the usernames and passwords I need from Silver, download a nice FTP client, and put the favicon in place.

So this time, I'll say Soon without the ™ because it really will be Soon.  This is actually high on the agenda for me, 'cause I want the bookmark on my Android's home screen to show the pretty icon instead of the default flag thing it shows now in between the pretty Facebook and FetLife icons.

Woot! \o/

I dunno what firefox's problem is, but it's now showing in IE.  Don't know about chrome, never installed it.  I'll check on that later.

Apparently it just takes some time for FF to unfuck itself; if you use FF and it doesn't show up by, say, tomorrow, then post here and I'll see if I can't find some solution. For now, it's time for breakfast.  And a shower.  And a cigarette.  And if I have a drink or two, no, it's NOT too early when you work midnight shift and you're used to saying things like "It's too early in the night/too late at morning," so don't judge me, k?   

Thanks again to Safai and everyone who posted in this thread with comments/feedback that helped to reach the beautiful 16x16 end result!

EDIT:  Seems to work in Chrome.

Not showing up on chrome for now.

Try pasting this url, then going back and Ctrl+F5

Should show in Chrome after that.

Nope. Still not showing for me either on Chrome.

[Havohej]

Strange, working in Chrome for me.

Hm... looking into it.

[Katrina Oniseki]

Chrome user here. Working fine for me.

So apparently favicon info is stored in some kind of special place in your browser.  It's not just a cache.  It's more than that.  It's like a supercache.  Anyway, Ctrl+F5 didn't do it for me in FF... restarting FF didn't do it for me... restarting my laptop, however, that did it for me.  I now have the favicon displaying properly in Firefox.

Maybe this super inconvenient solution will work for the Chrome users who're having trouble as well?

Loooooove.

[Safai]

Awesome

[Lyn Farel]

Doesn't seem to work at work either...

At least on tabs, not tried on bookmarks yet. Though it doesnt work on bookmarks at home too, but maybe it's because it never refreshed.

[DeadRow]

Worked on the tabs at work but get nothing at home, weird.

[Havohej]

Have you two tried CTRL+F5, going into your browser's options and manually clearing the cache then restarting the browser (and or your machine altogether)?  I had to do all of that before it would show for me.

EDIT: Also had to delete all cookies associated with Backstage and eve-inspiracy.com.  One of those things worked, but I couldn't tell you which or even if it would've worked without doing the other stuff.  hth

[DeadRow]

Tried CTRL-F5, will clear cache later/when I cba and let you guys know
