Thanks Jeremy

That is useful. I'm still trying to understand the complexity of 
.ico/favicon. 
Knowing it matters in some situations.

I think its a good example of where technical knowledge of TW might 
leverage more. 
But it is down to the more tech user to figure out those details & 
potentiate them.

Regarding the OP. It was basically simple. That as soon as you edit a 
favicon in TW is reverts to "png".
That is not a functional issue per se. But as is it *is* a confusing 
end-user phenomena.

Best wishes
Josiah
