Author Topic: Oh, come off it! Charles Capps We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid. Member # 9 posted                       That could only happen if your profile folder got screwed up somehow...

Oh, I'm so glad I'm past the day where I needed to bookmark things.... any site I go to now, I type in from memory. Why? Because I've worked REALLY hard to "get a life" and now there are only like, oh, 4 sites I visit regulary. Praise the Lord for no longer being the uber-geek. Daylight is a wonderful thing Sorry Snay... I have to poke fun at you.... it's my job. ~LOA Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Mucus Senior Member Member # 24 posted                       Theory: Somehow you started up the Firefox equivalent of the Mozilla Profile Manager which allowed you to create a completely new profile separate from the old one. Thinking that everything was deleted you reimported everything into this new profile while your old profile is still sitting around. Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged TSN I'm... from Earth. Member # 31 posted                       Mozilla once lost all of my bookmarks. I don't know why. The bookmarks file was still where it was supposed to be, but it had simply reverted back to its default. I never figured out why it happened.

Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged David Sands Active Member Member # 132 posted                       A question about bookmarks: I notice that with Firefox there are a lot more of those nice little pictures instead of the default "ball" next to each bookmark. Most of those little pictures load into my bookmarks when I visit the site for at least 10 seconds. However, there is at least one I can remember that refuses to do so. Since the pictures help me remember what I have visited each day and what I haven't, is there anyway to get that little glyph into my bookmarks manually? Thanks.

Member # 9 posted                       Try deleting that bookmark, then creating the bookmark again, after you see the icon in the URL bar. (It's called a favicon, originally an IE feature, but extended and enhanced by Firefox... IE remembers the icon only for about a week after you bookmark the site. Google the term for more info.) Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Lee I'm a spy now. Spies are cool. Member # 393 posted                       I've found that when you bookmark it, the default favicon appears. If you then use that bookmark, it'll pick up the site's own favicon. Mind you, the slightest bit of instability while using Firefox and it loses them all. -------------------- Never mind the Phlox - Here's the Phase Pistols Registered: Jul 2000  |  IP: Logged Harry Stormwind City Guard Member # 265 posted                       It's a known bug in either Firefox or the way favicons work in general. ATM, the only link that has the wrong favicon in my list is Flare. -------------------- Titan Fleet Yards | Memory Alpha Registered: Dec 1999  |  IP: Logged Charles Capps We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid. Member # 9 posted                       We don't have a favicon, last I checked. Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged David Sands Active Member Member # 132 posted                       Charles: I tried deleting the bookmark and re-entering it, by Ctrl-D, manually, using the links toolbar, nothing works. Tried Googling the problem but nothing came up that seemed to work. Leaving the site on for a few minutes doesn't seem to work either. The site I'm trying to get is http://www.powerlineblog.com. Is there something else I might try? PS: Charles: why ISN'T there a favicon for Flare?

Registered: May 1999  |  IP: Logged Charles Capps We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid. Member # 9 posted                       Hmm, I'm not seeing a favicon for the site when I bookmark it either. How very odd. We don't have a favicon here because I have no graphical talent at such a small image size. Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged David Sands Active Member Member # 132 posted                       Thanks for checking, Charles.
