How to Create a Tumblr Favicon

I cannot believe these instructions do not pop up #1,2 or3 on Google for “create a tumblr favcion?”

Here is all you have to do:

  1. Assuming your tumblr blog has a profile picture, copy the image link by right clicking on your profile picture.
  2. Go to your theme and add this line of code in the header <link rel=”icon” href=”THIS IS WHERE YOUR IMAGE LINK WILL GO”/>.
  3. Your profile picture is formatted as a PNG file image when you upload it to tumblr. In this case, the image link for a 128 x 128 image: http://14.media.tumblr.com/avatar_539369dec96b_128.png.  This image is stored on the tumblr servers.
  4. Tumblr automatically created a 16 x 16 image and it is waiting for your use. Simply change the “128 to “16,” which is the size of a favicon and then add it to the new line of code in your header: <link rel=”icon” href=”http://14.media.tumblr.com/avatar_539369dec96b_16.png”/>.
  5. Save and that’s it.
