This is certainly a new world of marketing a brand name with a logo, called a Favicon, which big companies are trademarking! Very interesting...</div><div><br></div><div>And I have found that only some web browsers show the Favicon.ico that I created...Camino, Netscape Navigator, and others do not show the Favicon, but Firefox and Safari do...so there must be something I don't know yet!</div><div><br></div><div>I thought I needed to update Camino to the latest version, so I did that, but I still cannot view the Favicon, so maybe the Camino developers never put that feature into Camino...Camino is a web browser for the mac...</div><div><br></div><div>So I guess not all web browsers relate to Favicons the same way...;-))</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway...I prefer the simple urls of the past...simple web browsers without too much clutter up at the top...</div><div><br></div><div>Nonetheless we will try to develop better Favicons...but I certainly don't plan to trademark them! The Favicon software I used automatically puts the Favicon under the Creative Commons license I believe...and that is fine with me! </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your help -</div><div><br></div><div>Val ;-)</div><div><br></div><div>------</div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On Dec 22, 2008, at 6:25 AM, Bill Reese wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"> <div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> Val,<br> <br> Now that I'm paying more attention to favicons, I noted something a bit different at a Mozilla site<br> <span><moz-screenshot-2.jpg></span><br> <br> They have added their company name just after the favicon they use for adding extensions to Thunderbird.<br> <br> Some companies have trademarked their favicon(s).
