You might have come across an error while uploading a favicon for your blog that doesn't allow you to use that image as a favicon just because it is not in the form of a square!
Favicon is basically a small image that is displayed along with the blog title to your visitors. Blogger provides a favicon of the blogger's logo only for all blogs by default. You may change it anytime.
Since most of the images are rectangular so you will have to deal with this error for all of them.
To use any image as your blog favicon you need to resize the image in such a way that its height and width are both equal.
In this way you will get a square image to use as your blog favicon.
Here is how you can easily resize your image:
- Just log on to resizeyourimage.com (It's a free online service to edit your images)
- Click on upload and select the image you want to resize.
- Your image will be loaded. Now using the arrows crop and resize the part you want as your favicon.
- You must keep the width and height equal to attain a square image. While resizing, both width and height are displayed above the image in numerical values.
- After you are done with editing, click on Do it! from the top and download the image by clicking on the image name.
You now have got a square image to use as a favicon for your blog.
Simply login to your blogger account. Open your blog and click on Layout.
Open the favicon box from the top.. Upload your image and bang!
You're done ;-)
Image will be accepted and your blog gets rid of the boring blogger favicon..
* Don't worry if the favicon takes time to display. It may take a few minutes.
Hope this is helpful..
If you have any problem, please let me know ;-)
