Kind of an odd first submission to a wiki site, but oh well...

It's been driving me nuts that this site doesn't currently have a favicon in use (though according to my browser cache the code is already there; it just needs to be created and uploaded to the root directory (i.e., http://telarapedia.com/favicon.ico). So, I've made a couple:

http://amenity.yolasite.com/resources/favicon3.ico
http://amenity.yolasite.com/resources/favicon4.ico

The two are basically the same, only one has rounded corners. The idea was to have a similar favicon to other Rift sites (such as the official site and ZAM Rift) but with a colour scheme to set it apart (I used the light blue, white, and grey of the default Telarapedia colour scheme).

If nothing else, they'd make a nice temporary solution until someone else comes up with better.

Hey there.

Strange that it is missing! It used to exist and was basically the one used http://archeagewiki.com but with a T and not the AA. Yours are pretty good, though!

A wiki is only as good as its contributors - won't you help out?

Yeah, I figured it was just a minor oversight. For a lot of people it's a pretty insignificant thing (especially in the grand scheme of maintaining a site of this level of complexity) but for us heavy users of tabbed browsing and bookmark toolbars it makes a world of difference. It doesn't even really matter what the icon is, as long as it's distinctive (pity you can't really fit a Yarnosaur head in a 16x16-pixel square).

Thanks for pointing it out, though. We had a server move and it somehow got lost. I'll dig up the backup! It's a big deal for me as well since I have so many tabs I judge the site by its icon. So far I have it cached, but it has gone walkabout from the web server.

I know it's only been about 10 days or so, but any progress on this? My bookmarks toolbar will thank you!
