When I got my template it just had a ordinary page icon and well I would like to add a favicon I made for my site to it. How do I do this? I dont see a line that says .ico?

I found this site:http://www.html-reference.com/bookmarkicon.htm
But I dont fully understand how to make it work. Do I just upload the image and the add that line there?

The line you should add is:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

and of course, don't forget to upload your icon. I know that's obvious but you'd be surprised the number of sites I have come across that have forgottoen that!

LOL Yeah I will upload the file to my server and link to it. So I just add that line anywhere?

add the line within your <head></head> - usually the next line under your title
