Favicon

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A favicon is a small image (known as an icon) that is used to identify a website or webpage.

A 16×16 favicon.
A 32×32 favicon.
A 64×64 favicon.

This type of icon (also known as a favorite icon or favorites icon) is usually a square image that is only 16×16 pixels in size (16 pixels in height and 16 pixels in width). However, modern browsers, especially those installed on smartphones, can display bigger favicons that are 32×32 pixels or 64×64 pixels in size. When a favicon is included in a webpage it can be seen next to a browser's address bar, inside a browser's tab (often to the left of the title of the tab), or in the browser's Favorites or Bookmarks list.
