We can only give you support on the forum that is hosted with
Create A Forum.
I do believe there is a Favicon modification for self-hosted
forums though.

Resize the favicon you want to use, upload it to
HTML http://eypic.net
and change the URL to the url you get from
Eypic.
Hope this helps.

Oh No ! No one is 'getting this' are they ?
I have the favicon installed and it works on
www.ukwholesaleforum.createaforum.com
My forum is then hosted/directed, whatever you like to call it,
to www.wholesalechat.co.uk
The favicon works on the first but not the second domain

The main domain is a frame redirect
--- Code ---
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN"
"
HTML http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Wholesale Chat</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="Wholesale Chat" />
<meta name="description" content="Wholesale Chat" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=UTF-8" />
</head>
<frameset rows="100%">
<frame src="
HTML http://ukwholesaleforum.createaforum.com
"
title="Wholesale Chat" frameborder="0" noresize="noresize"/>
<noframes>
<body>
<h1>Wholesale Chat</h1>
<p><a
href="
HTML http://ukwholesaleforum.createaforum.com
">
HTML http://wholesalechat.co.uk/</a></p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
</html>
--- End Code ---
Which does not support favicons the best way to get it working
is to park the domain with us and use as your forum's domain in
order for the favicon to work.

You need to ether create nameservers or setup an A record and
point it to the ip of 184.171.171.98

Yep , thats what I've done, otherwise my domain address wouldn't
be working - but it is.
So my forum displays exactly the same on
www.ukwholesaleforum.createaforum.com as it does on my domain
www.wholesalechat.co.uk

At the moment you have a redirect which is different forwards
the request from that site to your createaforum.com site but
doesn't change your createaforum links
