I thought this would be a good place to talk about this. I created a favicon for this site using the basic BSG circle logo, but ".ico" is blocked in the image upload. Most wikis will rediredct requests for favicon.ico to Image:Favico.ico, so I dont know why it is blocked here. Anyway, please unblock ".ico" so i can upload it and get rid of this ugly "basic page" icon on my toolbar. Thanks. --[[User:Bp|Bp]] 12:01, 5 May 2006 (CDT) | I thought this would be a good place to talk about this.

:It wouldnt work even if you did managed ot upload an ico file because images are actually uploaded withing a series of subdirectories. if you want a favicon to work it must be uploaded to the root folder. and that requires admin ftp access --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] 12:15, 5 May 2006 (CDT) | :It wouldnt work even if you did managed ot upload an ico file because images are actually uploaded withing a series of subdirectories. if you want a favicon to work it must be uploaded to the root folder. and that requires admin ftp access --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] 12:15, 5 May 2006 (CDT) | ||

favicon
I thought this would be a good place to talk about this. I created a favicon for this site using the basic BSG circle logo, but ".ico" is blocked in the image upload. Most wikis will rediredct requests for favicon.ico to Image:Favico.ico, so I dont know why it is blocked here. Anyway, please unblock ".ico" so i can upload it and get rid of this ugly "basic page" icon on my toolbar. Thanks. --Bp 12:01, 5 May 2006 (CDT)
