Faviconic is a droplet application that sets your web internet location files' icons to their site's favicons. Drop a .webloc file onto Faviconic and it downloads the icon you see in the address bar of the site and sets it as the Finder icon of that file.

This is the only PPC app I use regularly, and the only one I'll miss when I upgrade to from Snow Leopard to Lion.

Anyone know how to get Faviconic's functionality in an Intel app?

Why would you buy it???

you can get the "favicon" if you go to that website and in the URL bar add "favicon.ico" after the "http://www.website.com/". eg: "http://www.google.com.au/favicon.ico"

That is a great tip. Yet, it does not work with the blue favicon at:

Instead, you get the golden favicon (not the blue one).

Anyone knows how to get the blue favicon of such site?
Thanks.

make icon (spring for example) also for sites w/o favicons, so spring with a globe or something..the springs just look so much cooler than default icons of urls

thanks

Very nice indeed!

Used to have a folder full of boring and identical looking, meaningless .webloc icons. Faviconic changed that.

Now... for sites without favicon.ico, could I request that the .webloc icon be changed to the default style? :)

Keep up the good work!
