Description DieBuche 2010-06-11 17:32:55 UTC

The commons favicon shows up as a blank file in both Safari & Chrome.
Additionally, the version which shows up in other browsers is not transparent & horizontally stretched.

See also http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Favicon.

Could we maybe declare the favicon as proposed in bug https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17980 ? This would allow for a PNG with a proper alpha channel, while IE users would still see the normal one.

Here's another smaller one; it doesn't contain 64x64, though.

Comment 7 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2011-01-18 20:27:38 UTC

The favicon.ico file should be a 16x16 unanimated icon. It should be as light as possible. Actual icons are 300bytes to 1500bytes.

Comment 8 JeLuF 2011-01-20 10:20:45 UTC

Done.

Comment 9 DieBuche 2011-01-20 17:12:07 UTC
