Qu'est-ce qu'un Favicon ?
A favicon is the tiny symbol that pays homage to your actual logo. It will be used by browsers to help identify individual pages on your site to users.
If you look at at the top of this page in your own browser now, you should see the curly "W" favicon I am using for WordStamped before the title of the page in the browser tab.
To create a favicon simple make an image in PNG format that is around 150px square and upload to your site's media library. Make sure the symbol you use is very simple and easy to recognise when viewed at about 12px square.
