Does anyone else think that the mb should have a cool little favicon to make it stand out some more? We could run a mini-contest to see posters' submissions and then lobby Phobiazero to put it on the server.

favicons are little icons that come up in your address bar.
i don't see the point, really.

thanks for filling in the explanation, xf.
I agree that they're kind of pointless in general, but I still think they're kind of neat.

they're just a little detail that makes a website experience ever so slightly more robust.
they help brand a website.. just like any icon.

How about a proper site to go with that favicon?
I'm joking of course.

If you say XLT quick enough, in a funny accent, it sounds like CLIT. Would a dirty great clit make a good favicon for XLT?

if you use a proper web browser a website's favicon will appear just to the left of the sites URL in the location bar.
if you're unfortunate enough to still be using internet explorer you will probably only see the favicon in your favorites list once you bookmark a site.
it's a little image. an icon if you will.

It think this is a great idea. I always get the impression that websites with these things are extra swanky, deluxe sweet. But I'm one of those fanboy fruits that would love to have an XLT skin for my Winamp, for my Opera browser, for my jacket, etc.

Well all of these things would only take a couple of hours to sort out, so if you want it, either do it or let one of the willing punters do it.

They're actually really easy to create too: it's just a regular Windows .ico format file that is saved under the name "favicon.ico" at the root directory of the server.

What Ecnadniarb said.
Shit, I just proved your point about originality.
Ophecks: I want a biker patch to sew onto a jacket/back. That woiuld be awesome.
Ganymede: Damn good idea- it'd be a good source of designs for XLT merch. too- stickers, posters, slipmatts, T shirts, etc.
