Question create a favicon

OK so I have photoshop and know basically how to create a favicon but when I went to try to save it, there was no option to save it with the .ico extension. Anyone know what I need to do? Do I need to use another program? I thought for sure I could do this in photoshop?

Hi there,

You need to download the ICO plug-in. Go here...
http://www.telegraphics.com.au/sw/

Unzip the file and place the ICOFORMAT file into your "file format" folder (a sub directory of your plugins folder) inside your photoshop directory. The path should be something like c:/program files/adobe/photoshop.....

Restart photoshop and try to do a "save as" and you should see the ICO extension as an option when you save.

You may also consider an online favicon creator.

For example: http://www.htmlkit.com/services/favicon/

Hope this is useful.
