I take it you mean, you are currently building a website and wish to have a favicon in place for when it will presnt on the internet? Or is it something else you are doing with the website?

The best place to put a favicon is at the root directory of your website, such as where your index.php / .html is located. If you can’t access these files, because you are using something like officelive, then the best thing to do is to upload the image to an image storage place online and link to that image, such flikr, etc.

If you really want to get creative you make a forum account, upload the favicon as your forum icon image, and just hyperlink to your forum image

Great instructions. Took me minutes.

Jennie I don’t know if you’ve found your transparent background solution but upload your .ico to http://www.favicon.cc/ They have transparent as an option colour.

I have one funny little glitch. I have the favicon showing when I use http://www.sitename.com but it won’t show when I use http://sitename.com

I edited the HTML code directly with the two lines (in SeaMonkey)
