Re: [PLUG] favicon


I just thought of something. Favicons may not work as desktop icons if they aren't designed for that purpose. A favicon is a file which can contain multiple instances of an icon. The smaller icons goes in the browser while larger icons are used for the desktop.

I've been trying to get this to work with limited results. Here is what I

I have seen these little icons starting to proliferate, but I don't understand why. Mozilla (your icon works for me, Jon) suggests I drag and drop the icon to create a bookmark. But dropping it doesn't do anything on mozilla browser, emacs, nautilus desktop, or nautilus directory (folder) windows.

Making bookmarks has never seemed to me like a complicated task that
warranted server-side support.

What problem do these things solve?
