Look at my URL address on your browser. You can see the tiny sunflower pics there :) That is called Favicon. I have no idea how easy it is to have your own favicon. First, you need an image file that you want to use as your favicon named as favicon.ico.
That is where the problem comes because you can't save an image file with *.ico extension. It will keep giving you favicon.ico.jpg or some other image extension. After doing some sleuthing, I discovered a Favicon Generator. Upload your image there and it will be converted to favicon.ico. You have to save it to your hard disk and then upload it to the root directory of your website.
Note: Will not work with Blogspot because you have no idea what the root directory is.
Post this code <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"> in between your template <HEAD> code and you're done :)
Wikipedia explains other method of putting in favicon but I have not tried them yet. This is good enough. I already have mine. If you want yours, happy trying :D
Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.
