Okay, I'm not exactly sure what these images are called, but in Opera, on most websites, there is a little image (usually the logo of the website), up to the left of the address bar.

Is anyone able to explain how to get images there?

Thank you.

    Hey,

    That would be called a 'favicon'. What you'll need to do is create a 16 x 16 pixel image and save it in windows icon format (.ico). Here's a photoshop plugin to do so:

    www telegraphics com au/sw/

    You will need to save the file as 'favicon.ico'

    Next, you'll need to put that small favicon.ico file into your servers root directory (nowhere else) and put this line of code in between your <head> </head> elements:

    <link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="/favicon.ico">
    That should do the trick

      Is there a way to extract that type of image from previously created art with one's logo, for instance?
