favicon.ico
I got a little creative today and made a new icon for the Annearchy* site. I had made one that was a red A on a black background, but it looked lopsided so I didn't really like it. The new one is a teeny tiny representation of Anne's tattoo. I thought it turned out pretty well considering I made it. I also found out that more browsers are allowing file types other than ico. However just to be safe, I found a free converter and changed it over. In Firefox and Opera it shows up in the url bar, in Explorer you have to favorite-ize the page and then look in your favorites to see it. The only downside is that it verges on the too small to see what it is, but I haven't figured out any other shape to use. Anyway, there it is.
*again, currently only looks descent in Firefox and Opera.

BTW: also looks good in Safari...but then again how many other peeps out there are knocking around the web on an Apple.
Thanks for the info Henry. And according to rencent data about 2% or so of you out there are using Safari. I hadn't quite figured out how I was going to check on Safari (seeing as I don't have a mac available). Maybe I will just have to make you look at it when I make changes. ;)
I was, however, more than half assuming that it would be ok because the only one it looks really bad in is (stupid) IE. I think they are the only ones who haven't really updated their product since the 90's. Everybody else seems to have come to somewhat of a concensus. Maybe a W3C sort of concensus?*
*snark intended*
I use a Mac! But also a PC.
My browser of choice these days is Flock - it integrates a bunch of things that I like to use a lot, including Flickr and del.icio.us.
It looks great in FireFox and actually pretty decent in IE. Kudos on the use of positioning with CSS...
We should also chat about Google AdWords to drive traffic to the site. I'll bet the cost per click would be low for the search terms you'd be looking at.
