Doom9 favicon ideas

RNiK · 4th August 2009, 16:53

As I wouldn't raise a five years old thread, I'm opening this new one to submit some favicon ideas for Doom9 site and forum.

1 - - This one has been made with this; both background colors and text colors are the same used in Doom9 site homepage.

2 - - This one has been made with Paint.NET; background color gradient is the same used in Doom9 top header.

3 - - This one has been made with Paint.NET; background color gradient is generic blue.

The first one is my favorite.

Another try:

4 - - Transparent background.

5 - - Transparent background, different font.

Sincerely, I don't like that much transparent background in favicons.

I think the favicon should match the site's logo, and doom9 doesn't really have one. Nor does it really need it.

So are you saying it shouldn't have a favicon?

Hope someone of the site admin will find the time to take a look at this thread.

the gradient background isn't that cool and looks really bad on the favorites toolbar (same goes for transparent), hard edges are needed IMO.
