favicon for the studio

Post by Morgalad »

Now that the studio has been updated it looks more like the prod environment and even the favicon for the browser tabs is the one from prod.
see http://en.studio.boardgamearena.com/favicon.ico
This sometimes has confused me.
Could you change the favicon for the studio to have the the:

instead of the

Hi,
No Victoria, the favicon has nothing to do with css.
The favicon is a pseudo standard that started with IE6 to add some icons to the favorite links the browser seeks for a file called "favicon.ico" in the root of your web server (it does not matter what web server you use)

In our case http://en.studio.boardgamearena.com/favicon.ico

Modern browsers use this icon to tag your tabs:

Yeah its good idea to replace it too. I complained about it too that it looks the same and Een replaced main icon on tool bar. Did not notice that other one.

Please also fix the waiting logo in top-left corner of every studio page. It still uses this one:

Yes, well studio logos are just for quickly identifying if we are on the studio or the mainsite.
The waiting logo is not really important and there is a limited number of people using the studio (just developers), so replacing the waiting logo too felt like going beyond and above :)

I mean to say, can you make the waiting logo for studio same as the static one? I wasn't asking to animate the studio one :lol:

Well it's better if it stays animated (even if it's the wrong one) or there would'nt be the sense of waiting ;)
