Custom loading icon ;D

Yeah i know this is basic but it is clean (save dialog not popping up twice, etc...)

Program:
Favicon Grabber.zip
App:
Favicon Grabber Source.zip
Have fun :D

Nobody says,"Its not that good." It means nothing. If you dont like it then dont respond to the topic. Or just tell what will make it better.

I don't really see a point in a program for this, you can always go to the website, view the source (CTRL+U in most browsers) and inside the header you'll fine this code.
Code: Select all
<link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="URL_HERE">
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="URL_HERE">
<link href="URL_HERE" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon"/>
Just click the link (of the favicon url), then press CTRL+S to download it, and you're good to go. No extra software needed.

I did that exact thing, and BINGO Code'N'Stuff's official favicon.

Nice idea though, but like I said. I don't see a need for it, but that's me.

I think this was intended for Web Browsers.

Im with Mike if this were intended for web Browsers then dont you think he would've mentioned that
and if it were for web browsers it shouldnt have its own seperate program it should be built in so when you enter
a webpage it asks if you would like to use the feature
