Just a little suggestion to make Shockplay seem more professional.
In the favorites menu in IE, an icon is put next to each link. Most sites don't have any unique icon, and then the default "e" icon of IE is just used. But big sites usually have a designed icon just for their site, and I think it would be cool if Shockplay had the same thing. Like a red ring or something.
It also makes it easier to visually spot the right favorite link if you have a long and kind of unsorted list, so I think it would be both cool and practical.

Actually, there is a favo-icon, we made it a few months ago, but now I realize that it does not work if you use explorer. I use Safari on Mac, and it shows up fine. You can view the source of the html and you see a reference to the icon: www.shockplay.com/WWW3/MISC/shockplay.icoI dont know why it does not work in explorer. I will ask my html expert as soon as he is back from his vacation. |

IE has a bug, or it is just still incomplete.
The fav icon will be visible in your bookmark list, and next time you visit the site the fav icon will also be displayed next to the address

Thanks for the feedback, Rocketman. It will look nice among the links in my couronne folder.
Siddan, I am not sure if you mean that it will show up by the time it has been "fixed", at least it doesn't show up now, neither in the bookmark list or the IE address field. I can testament to the buggy nature of this feature in IE though, having had nice icons being transformed to the default IE icon by ghosts over night or something.

It worked for me when I added a new favorite. Try readding the favorite!

I tried that as well, after erasing the old one and such, but it just seems to not want to work at my comp. I first enter shockplay.com in the address field, then get redirected to shockplay.com/WWW3/index.asp, and it's the latter one I add as favorite!? |

now when I checked my fav bookmark links I saw there were no icons on any links. I guess those default "e" icons that had a poor black shadow, which was a couple, were the ones with customized icons.
I deleted shockplay from the list and added it again, the icon is now visible once again
the fact is... there is a fav icon for shockplay. Which this thread was about believing it was lacking
