Your problem<\/u><\/p>\n
You want to create an icon for your website (which is displayed in the browser’s location bar). You already know, that you have to place a file called favicon.ico in your web server’s document root directory. But how can you create one?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The solution<\/u><\/p>\n
You need an image file that GIMP can open (PNG, GIF, etc.). And you need the command line tool ppmtowinicon from the netpbm-tools (on SuSE you have to have installed the package netpbm). Now perform the following actions:
\n# Open your image with GIMP.
\n# If your image is not a square then resize the canvas with GIMP.
\n# Scale the image to 16×16 pixel (Image, Scale image).
\n# Choose File, save as.. and save as favicon.pnm or favicon.ppm with raw encoding.
\n# Close GIMP
\n# Convert favicon.pnm resp. favicon.ppm using the command line utility ppmtowinicon:<\/p>\n> ppmtowinicon -output favicon.ico favicon.pnm<\/p>\n
resp.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
> ppmtowinicon -output favicon.ico favicon.ppm<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
