On most Blender.org websites the favicons look bad, compare this website to b.o for example.

Currently, we only have 16x16 icon which is below todays modern recommendations.

Below are the sites that need to be updated. (There maybe be more)

Below are updated icons:

favicons.zip

Included are bonus icons that can be used for other purposes:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/apple-touch-icon.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon-32x32.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="16x16" href="/favicon-16x16.png">
<link rel="manifest" href="/site.webmanifest">
<link rel="mask-icon" href="/safari-pinned-tab.svg" color="#da532c">
<meta name="msapplication-TileColor" content="#da532c">
<meta name="theme-color" content="#ffffff">

Had a chat with Pablo and Mike. Currently we are not able to apply these changes for a couple of reasons:

  • the proposed favicon is simply a downscaled version of the Blender logo – we can work on a more suitable variation for this
  • integrating such change in some of the website requires careful work (further customization of the mediawiki bootstrap skin for example) for which there is no bandwidth currently

This proposal goes on the todo list for now.

Are you talking about a different design entirely? What we have now is just a downscaled blender logo.

The extra icons can be put on hold but the main issue here is to replace the 16x16 with something at least slightly bigger. The favicon I created is 48x48 and much clearer.
