You ask what is a favicon? A favicon (short for favorites icon) is a 16×16 or 32×32 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage. Browsers that provide favicon support typically display a page’s favicon in the browser’s address bar and next to the page’s name in a list of bookmarks. If you look at the image below you will see exactly where the favicon is visible:

1. First you need to make your icon. You can use MS Paint, Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop or any other graphics program you have.
2. I think the best results you have are from squares. So draw a square and then add detail to it (a letter and/or image). Make sure there is not a lot of detail because this is going to be shrunk down to 16 x 16 or 32 x 32 pixels which is not very big.
3. Save it to your computer.
4. There are many sites out there which allow you to create your own but one of my favorites to give customers is this one: ICONJ.
5. Load your favicon up to their site and click on SHARPEN +3
6. Once you have uploaded your image you will get a page with this type of image on it:
   
7. In another tab open up your blogger dashboard and click on design/edit HTML
8. Click on ctrl + F to find this part of your code: < /head > (remove the spaces before and after the < >.
9. Right BEFORE the < /head > paste the code in the box under this heading Host It at IconJ.com: (Direct Link)
