That’s great and new source for free and animated icons, you won’t need to design your own icon and loos any time any more, thanks for iconj.com Go there and browse.
Step 2: (OR ) Make your own favicon.
now you have to make your icon 16×16 pixels. I usually use photoshop to do it and save it as any image format. like [ jpg, gif, png, .....].
call it favicon.jpg , favicon.gif or favicon.png. just choose one format, not all of 3 types.
and we’ll use program called “imagicon” you can search Google to download.its free and only 950 KB.
setup the program and find the icon image that you made it and saved it by photoshop, favicon.xxx
load the image and choose 16×16 win32 icon. save it as .ico.
so it’ll be favicon.ico.
Recommended : it’s recommended to name your icon file – favicon.ico -
Step 3: Upload it.
Use you favorite image upload or file service to upload you favicon.ico file.
and keep the url at save place cause we going to use it in step 4.
the url should be something like.

Step 4: Add a code to your blogger xml layout.
log in to your blogger account. Now find the blog you want to edit if you own more than one blog. And click “layout” table. then choose “Edit html”
