Is it possible to have a favicon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon) for AOS please? I always have many tens of tabs open and it would be a lot easier to see which is the AOS tab if there was a favicon.

Indeed - that's probably why you miss your PMs, shweety! :lol: :eyebrows: ;)

I'll let our technical bods comment on this one. If it's possible, I don't see why we can't implement it :)

Great idea and easy to do. Only thing is I don't have direct server access so would need to call in a favour to drop the file in the right place. I'll ask that it gets added to the list when we do the next software upgrade!

Cheers Kris :)

AoS would show up better in bookmarks lists as well;)

You tell me whether there will be a favicon soon, it's a decisive factor for my contributions here. :eyebrows:

It will probably look something like this in terms of lettering:

AOS


but on a yellow background.

Note the o is in upper case. Although this is less grammatically correct I think it works better visually and importantly is consistent with the AOS amp logos below:


AOS classic series


The typeface is consistent with the banner heading:


The Art of Sound

We now have a customised favicon. You may need to close and reopen your browser to see it. And you may need to remove / re-bookmark AOS. It depends which browser you've got. I think it looks really neat :carrot:

Excellent work. It really stands out well amongst my other tabs.

Many thanks :youtheman:

Yes, it looks great (providing you don't use an AOL browser), so well done, Nick! :clap:

Great suggestion Kris, and nice one for sorting so quickly Nick - now my toolbar shortcut just has an icon and no text, just the way I like them! (It looks more brass than copper on my screen though Dimitri!)

Brass, you're right of course. ;)
