[Guide] How to get a Favicon
DIR By: Andrew

The image should be 16x16 pixels
The image can be .gif, .png or .ico (preferably .ico named
favicon.ico)
1. If using an .ico file name it favicon.ico
It will show up in all browsers with no problems
Put this in your HEADER:
--- Code ---
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="image url" type="image/x-icon"
/>
--- End Code ---
Replace image url with the url of the favicon.ico
Free Favicon Generator and Hosting
HTML http://www.iconj.com/icon_generator.php
2. If you use a .gif or .png image you need to use both of the
codes below in order for it to show up in all browsers.
--- Code ---
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="image url" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="image url"
type="image/x-icon">
--- End Code ---
replace image url with the url of your image
Where it says image/png - leave it as image/png for a .png
file. Change it to image/gif if your image is a .gif.

I looked in your Headers and Footers and you have multiple code
for Favicons which I don't recommend so remove all of them
except one. I've seen that you put /FairyTail/favicon.ico as the
url to your favicon but that automatically points to
HTML http://fairytail-rp.tk/FairyTail/favicon.ico
since you didn't
write the full link.
Also, your favicon code wasn't closed at all, it needs to have a
/> at the end.

If you are using Google Chrome, clear your cache. It does that
to me too. Whenever you update the favicon, Google Chrome still
has your old one in it's cache files.
