This is the favicon of my site. Just follow these simple steps for changing the default blogger favicon icon:

- Save this images as .gif like fav.gif

http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc507/username/image.gif - Now the next step is to inserting link code in your HTML, Link code:
<link href='image url' rel='shortcut icon'/> - Replace the 'image url' with the url of your image.
