Hey ~Z~, I have an idea for the website picture (Favicon)

Unread post by J3rsdm5 »

You see the little railroad crossing picture in the top of the tab? On the left of the "Railroadfan.com • Index page" title. The favicon. This is really minor, but I could take out the white parts of the image for you. Just a small detail thing. Just let me know if you want me to. ;)

Can you take a screenshot of the portion you are talking about and circle it? Not positive what you are referring to about the white parts to remove.

This image, specifically:

Just the white space in the corners.
Honestly not a big deal at all, but just minor details.

Here is the completed favicon with white corners removed:

Edit:

Just to clarify, the file preview doesn't show transparent corners, but they will be when the image is applied. I tested with my own site to make sure.
Proof of concept:

My OCD is telling me to be in favor of this
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

How's it looking for you now j3rsdm5? All three of the browsers on my PC have basically a white background behind the image, but I have replaced the icon itself with the one you designed.
