I created an image in jpg format. I want to use it as the favicon but everytime I try to convert or save it in ico format, it turns into a blank image. Please help. Thank you.--Bejjinks 20:06, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Would be difficult to help without knowing what software you are using. And still, this forum is for discussion Wikia things, not how to use image editing softwares. But, did you know of IcoFX, it a pretty good tool for making ico files. — TulipVorlax 01:15, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Use The GIMP. It supports 24Bit true color images with 8bit of transparency, with support for ico files. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 19:38, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
And does the GIMP can do multiple icon sizes in the same file ? To think it matter not for a favicon is your choice. ;-P — TulipVorlax 20:22, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
This issue was resolved by a few people that visited the color wiki and helped. It took clearing my cache several times because, for whatever reason, my computer kept holding onto the old favicon even though I was clearing cache, but the correct favicon is now being displayed. Thank you. (btw, was using GIMP and had a favicon ready to go, it just wouldn't load correctly.)--Bejjinks 01:12, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
