I really wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm dropping it here; if a moderator should see it fit to move it, please alert me to where it went.

I'm building a website (in HTML format) and want to have an icon attached to the .html file so that it will appear in the browser's address - just like how this website has the multi-colored diamond/square. Any suggestions?

Also, what is a good program to make good icons?

create an icon follwoing the info in this site. must be called favicon

add the icon to the root of the web directory (beside index.html etc)

add the belwo code to the <head> part of the web pages

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
<link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico">

For creating icons you can use

GIMP for Windows (or GIMP on *nix)

IcoFX - Windows Software (pretty good)
