Sorry for attaching an image, but I just thought this was cool...

I've been getting the latest nightly build of mozilla, and recently
they added support for .ico files.  These are the ones that you place
on your website's root directory named 'favicon.ico'.  It used to be
that when IE5 bookmarked your site, it grabbed this file, if it
existed, and used it as a graphic in the bookmark list.

Well, Mozilla and Konquerer started using them also (just recently
mozilla) and now that I can see them, I decided to try to update ours
from an old linux penguin to a mini sized EUGLUG logo like most sites
are doing.

I did an 'apt-get install xpm2wico', did some manipulation on our logo
to get it square and 64x64.  Saved is as an .xpm and ran that utility
on it.  Out popped an .ico file for the website.

This screenshot shows it in action (along with mozilla tabbing).  :)
