Title: Browser Favicon
Post by: KefkaticFanatic on June 04, 2008, 10:00:32 PM
Could you guys add a little Ninsheetmusic Favicon to the site and forums?  What I mean is the little icon that appears in the tab or address bar for the website.  Dekudude should know how.

Woo! I've always wanted to know how those were made (Thanks Parker)! ;D My life is now slightly more complete. I made an animated one with a NSM theme. Favicon FTW! (http://www.mediafire.com/?mjbwsjn1yiz)

EDIT: You need to view it in Windows Picture Viewer or something, cuz my default program doesn't display it correctly.

Thats way better than mine. Is it only the mushroom or is there more pics?
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: Requiem on June 05, 2008, 10:13:27 AM
There's a mushroom, the original Link, and then NSM with some music notes. Isn't it playing for you? :-\

Also note that everything but the "NSM" was copied from an example via Google, just so you don't think I have amazing sprite skills. ::)

EDIT: Whipped up a blank page with it in action in case you can't view it right: NSM Favicon (http://www.freewebs.com/ambientrequiem/nsmfavicon.html)

Yes, NSM should have one.

There should of been one in the first place.

I got bored (http://www.mediafire.com/?xnhszdzzf22)  ::)

I don't see anything on your page :/

Your code is <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/ambientrequiem/NSMFavicon.ico" />
I think you left out the type="image/x-icon" <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/ambientrequiem/NSMFavicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">

I can see it fine...You don't see it next to the url or anything?... >_< Whatever, I'll put in the type, but I didn't think it was necessary. :P

EDIT: Can you see it now? :-\

I think it might be Internet Explorer's fault. It displays fine on Firefox..... :-\

EDIT: There. I put up an image with all 3 phases. Problem solved hopefully. ;D NSM Favicon (http://www.freewebs.com/ambientrequiem/nsmfavicon.html)

Post by: KefkaticFanatic on June 05, 2008, 05:00:27 PM
If you were to just use the image with the notes, and give it a colored background or something, it would be perfect.  Right now it doesn't show up if you have a black theme.
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: Requiem on June 05, 2008, 05:51:38 PM
Ya, I realized that too when I tabbed the page. White would be best so it still looks transparent next to the url. Anyways, it's just one I made cuz I was bored, not like it'll go on the site or anything. ::) *cough*faviconcontest*cough*

Whoa whoa whoa... am I reading your post right??  Did you just say to get IE7 rather than Firefox?  AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

You obviously are restricted from downloading it and are jealous.  There is absolutely no reason to favour Internet Explorer over Firefox.

Post by: Requiem on June 05, 2008, 08:11:40 PM
t'was indeed.  t'was my pic laughable?

EDIT: Built on Phase 3 (it's at least 10 seconds long now). Viewable here: Colored Notes (http://www.freewebs.com/ambientrequiem/colorednotes.html). Also, there's too many phases to make a pic timeline for the non-Firefoxers again, so I'll describe it: It's like Phase 3 of my first one (with red NSM), and the notes alternate purple, blue, and green, then all flash colors at the same time (and repeat).
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: PianoMan on June 06, 2008, 04:58:07 AM
I like that one, but there's too much time inbetween colors.
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: Parker2334 on June 11, 2008, 03:32:13 PM
So uhh... is anything going to happen related to favicons or should this thread die?
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: PianoMan on June 12, 2008, 09:15:46 AM
There's a new favicon! I personally don't like it that much, because It doesn't incorporate Nintendo/video games, and NSM is hard to see.
Title: Re: Browser Favicon
Post by: Requiem on June 12, 2008, 09:27:46 AM
I didn't notice till you said that. The only problem, in my opinion, is the color behind the NSM since it makes it difficult to read, like PianoMan said. Other than that, I think it's sexy. ;D

If you don't have a firefox, you are a fool.  On Tuesday you are required to download Firefox 3  or face consequences.

Ok, apparently it's only some people's IE, like Parker's. By the way (Parker), you should update your browser's version to the Uber Firefox Specialty Edition, it's so much nicer. ::)

I'd rather not downgrade to the Uber Firefox Specialty Edition, it sounds too fancy for my needs.
