On the 1-100 scale of importance, this rates somewhere between zero and 1. But it irritates me, so here goes.
On my Mozilla browser, I employ the bookmarks toolbar (the horizontal bar near the top that shows small icons of chosen bookmarks).
Because I know what the icons mean, I delete the actual name of the website that is bookmarked, so I have a nice row of little icons up top.
But the Facebook icon is giving me heartache. Around a month or so ago, it decided to switch from the familiar white F inside a blue box (if memory serves) to the big G Google icon.
And I cannot get it to go back to the F.
I have deleted and re-bookmarked, logged off and back onto Facebook, and rattled chicken bones over the keyboard. Nothing works.
As mentioned, this is a nano problem. But if solved I’ll sleep better.
Thanks, Jim! I ended up deleting the ‘favicon’ folder and all the icons went to a generic image. Clicking on the Facebook one gave me the proper Facebook icon.
Now I just have to click on the other 10,000 sites to retrieve their correct icons and I’m back in business.
mmm
A better solution would have been to use SpeedyFox to compress and repair all your Firefox databases. That way you wouldn’t have lost all your other icons. In fact, it’s still a good idea, because it will speed up Firefox, especially if you have been using it for a long time.
