New FavIcon

Because you totally favourited us!  ...  Right?
Of course you did.
Blogger FavIcon = Boring
Our original FavIcon = Looks like a webmaster from the 90's made it.
Our final & newest FavIcon = Beast as hell.
Took quite a while to upload, with a lot of technicality difficulties.
After a few hours fixed it.

A FavIcon is short for Favourites Icon often recognized as 'favicon.ico' as a file type.  '.ico' stands for Icon.  It's the little logo you see in the web address bar, the tabs, and in your favourites.

EDITWell, about that I said we had it fixed, but we have a problem.  Blogger, who is our host, unfortunately, does not support .ico files, meaning we have to host it somewhere else.  Problem, is not many sites will host .ico files either.  The one that does is probably IconJ, but the difficulty here is that any clear or transparent background will turn black.  We found another one that would work for us so well, only if it wasn't temporary hosting.  Meaning if we were to use it, we'd need to re-upload & re-link every few hours.  Well, anyways I don't see why I'm telling you my problems, if you have any suggestions, though, they would be highly appreciated.
