88 Outstanding Favicons and 6 Resources to Help You Create Your Own -Reblog
by Alyssa Gregory
Google faviconFavicons have become a standard element in web design, and they can have a tremendous impact on brand recognition (see Matt Magain’s post, “Google Changes Favicon, Challenges You To Do Better“). If you’re not used to designing for a tiny area (just 16×16 pixels), it can be very difficult to create a distinguishable company-specific or site-branded favicon. And depending on the logo, colors, words, etc. that you’re working with, it can be a challenge to create one that actually looks good.
In my constant search for favicon inspiration, I compiled a list of more than 80 creative and well-designed favicons that successfully portray the look and feel of the website or brand. There are probably thousands more that are suitable for this list, so if you have a few of your own favorites, share them in the comments.
