I've only just noticed the new "A" favicon for ASW. Is it just me, is it new, why, …?

Is it in honour of the 15 years?

Well spotted. I guess the new logo doesn't show up well on the white background.

I rather like it, but something should be done about the white block around it. Camino doesn't like it:

It wouldn't look very nice if the background around the A was transparent, either.

That's funny, I still have the old favicon.

As do I. Safari seems to never ever stop using its cached favicons unless you outright delete them from where they live.

Doing a reload in Safari (version 3) updated it for me.

Refreshing worked for me as well.

Well thats odd. It just updated for me too... But I did a reload and emptied my cache (using the Safari menu) then reloaded again earlier and it stayed the good old Zeus.

Forced reload (hold down option and click the reload button) worked. Normal one didn't.

I like the old one. Thankfully it hasn't updated for me yet.

I cleared the cache and the new one appeared. I guess the letter-as-a-favicon thing is pretty common practice-- check out this site as an example.

Mine just updated. I prefer the old one, but I'll get used to it.

I'm gonna say everybody copied me. I've been using a letter for my site's favicon for years.

I don't have those little things. I just have the internet explorer icon over what appears to be a piece of paper with a bent corner.
