when we go to the main page of the site does anyone else see in the addressbar a little red question mark?? or is it just me.

how do you set a picture for that bit? i've seen it on lots of pages and its wayy better than the default ones.

and how can it be set for other pages within the site.

I only got it after adding the page to my favourites, i think, so it might just be me!

Yep - I added a favicon to the site a while ago.

It was the quickest image I could make!

It will appear in your favourites and in your address bar.

It appears on all pages on my browser.

It is simply an image converted to .fav icon. This is placed into the site root.

Some members may need to clear the cache, or run a favicon script to grab the images back.

Most sites have a personalised icon rather than the standard icon.

Anyone who has us in their favourites can delete the entry, and then put it back to grab the icon.

I did have a program which would renew the icons - I have lost this though.

I have another question mark bug! if you use the marquee(move) tags the second one gets replaced by a ?

this text is enclosed in move tags

[edit] I just realised this is actually the first question mark bug, the other question mark bug wasnt a bug and wasnt reported as such, it was a question. Thanks for listening....

scrolling marquee was disabled a long while ago, long before i was a mod.

If you preview a post, it works.

It is auto-censored. I am not sure why it is censored to a ? - I have changed that to nothing.

nice work Lec, I knew it was meant to be disabled, but the question mark wasn't "clean" to my mind.

Another good job well done...
