 		Site icons
I guess I'm probably not the only one who was annoyed that The Sentinel site is the only one of the in-game sites that has a favicon (the little icon that appears next to the site name in your bookmarks/favourites), so I decided to make some icons for the rest of the sites. Hopefully the folks at MC will not have a problem with this, but if they do they can obviously let me know and I'll remove them.

I'm posting them in two zip files, one with PNG versons and one with ICO versions.

Firefox/Mozilla users can use an extension such as Favicon Picker to add custom icons to bookmarks, and I recommend you use the PNG versions of the files for this (It should also be possible to add the icons by manually editing the bookmarks file, but I'm not sure of the exact procedure for this).

Internet Explorer users can right-click on the links in their Favourites menu and select Properties, then press the Change Icon button. From there you can locate the ICO files from where they are saved to add them.

Other browsers should have ways of doing this, using one of the two formats, but I'm not going to go into details for them here.

Enjoy Smile

Edit - Updated link to FFX1.5 compatible version of Favicon Picker

 		Heres an PNG icon fFor the now available receda approach website. cheers!

EDIT -- added the whole lot of recerda trail sites. not too shabby, if i do say so. The school of music basically took the musical notes bullets fFrom the site and added a little depth; revenge uses the exact colours fFrom the site, with what i like to think is a lovely attempt at matching both spirit and theme; and resort uses the clip of the 3P sign fFrom the tree on the second page, enhanced a little.

cheers!

 		Oh, I forgot to post the icon for Anna's site. This was a tough one, since there's nothing on the site that really jumps out as icon material, but it turned out okay I think.

Oh, I had already made this one before I saw Scott's post...

I guess we can leave it up to the individual to decide which one they want to use. Transparency or not transparency - that is the question Smile

 		And now the Polygon Park Marathon. This wasn't an easy one - the big logo is nice but too complicated to look any good at 16x16.

Is anyone still using the ICO versions of these? It doesn't look like they're being downloaded, so I'll only post a PNG for now, but if anyone wants them let me know. They're easy enough to convert.

I should also point out that perplexcity.com now has its own icon. It's just a tilted version of what we had with a black border, but some people might want to delete the custom one and let the official version take its place.

 		I was planning on doing another one with transparency for the next site, since the last few have been square icons, but it just didn't fit with the extreme crappiness that is the Silburn-Griggs site.

 		The Ooze Zone, Caine's blog. A couple choices

Really this is such a cool site, I shouldnt be surprised if more people want to make an icon or 3. So you know, the guitar is a bit tricky to represent at 16 pixels. And the guitar pick says "Metallica".


Oh, and I wanted to point out. If you are running, say, fFirefox 1.5, you will want to get this plugin: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=321562
