  • it works for me? is it the ‘S’ favicon your wanting,
    Have you tried resetting your browser cache / WP cache if you use it,
    maybe then you will see it.

    I’m using Safari 4 on mac

    yeah, that’s the one… how do i reset WP cache?

    WP cache is a plugin, that you can delete the pages is cached.
    Just try resetting Safari Cache and see how you get on.

    Nice site btw ??
