How’d they do that?

  1. They create a 16 pixel x 16 pixel graphic and save it as a .ico file. The .ico indicates to the browsers that it is an icon.
  2. They add a single statement to the (behind-the-scenes) header section of each page of their Web site.
  3. They upload the graphic to the graphics folder on their Web site.
  4. They upload each page of their Web site.
  5. Voilà, c’est fini.
