Icon Mania

While for the longest time I have resisted a favicon for my own site, I have always enjoyed how much can be squeezed into an icon of 16x16 pixels... reminds me a little bit of the old days when one had to handcode sprites for games on 8-bit computers.

I must have spent insane amounts of time squeezing little spaceships into 8x8 pixel 2-color sprites... all of the summer of 1983 comes to mind. :-)

Here is a great gallery of some of the best favicons on the web by Michael Pierce, which finally inspired me to get an icon for this site, too!
