2. Add a Favicon to your webpage

  • Favicons are tiny pictures next to your page title in the browser. What’s the icon for Mr. Chastkavich’s website?
  • To make one on your website, you must find an image that is 16 x 16 pixels (pretty small!)
  • Download this image of flags and find a country that represents your background (can also be Canadian Flag). Open the file in Paint and use the Crop function to select one flag.
  • Save the cropped image in the SAME folder as where your website is saved. Call the image “flag.jpg”
  • Now add the following code to your <head> section to make the icon appear –
    • <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”flag.jpg”>
