Hi Ryan. Thanks for the tip. I'd been playing with canvas in Firefox
and Chrome to manipulate ico images so it hadn't crossed my mind that
the format wasn't universally supported. I'm sure you're right,
though; a quick test reveals Internet Explorer doesn't like the
format, either, and I can't find mention of the formats that should be
supported in the W3C spec. It may be above my skill level but I'll
take a look at an ico reader, as you suggested.
