How to Increase the Sizes of Favicons
A favicon is a small picture graphic that appears at the beginning of the address bar on most Web browsers. It is usually the symbol of the website that you visit on the Internet. Most websites have their own favicon. If a website does not have a favicon of their own, the browsers default favicon is used. Favicons are normally of 16 by 16 pixels size. This size can be increased as required.
