Favicon Design Considerations
28 September 2009
In this favicon how to, we’re going to cover some favicon design considerations…
First, is whether or not your design concept will translate well when reduced to a mere 16 pixels by 16 pixels.
This is the standard display size for a favicon icon and it can’t be increased without resorting to something more high-tech like an animated favicon that has a scrolling bit of text shown.
Second, you need to try to make your favicon image stand out while at the same time making it congruent with your overall site design.
Remember that your favicon icon is directly tied to your branding campaign and should be pleasing to the eye and immediately recognizable.
