Review title says it all, but also be clear this component does a fine job of taking most any size image (I've thrown at it yet anyway) and it makes it into one of those teeny weeny little pics for the fav location/spot.
The perfect component for the job it does and it does not require any other add-on frameworks or such either to work.
Thumbs-up!!

I like this little extension as I always create and add tailored favicon's to the sites I am developing.
Couple of wishes though:
1) It would be good if one could add favicon to the admin (backend) templates aswell as the frontend templates.
2) Would be great to see what the "current" favicon is on a template. (while in the component in the Joomla backend)
Other than that it does exacly what is says and will definitely be of benefit to many fellow Joomla users.

I'm new to Joomla! and website design in general. I followed a youtube video earlier on how to make a favicon and it didnt work. I installed this just now, followed the directions and had one right away!
If you want your site to have a favicon, use this and it'll have one in minutes! :)

I found this extension really easy to use as well. It does what I expected.
It should only be considered while preparing the original image file, that the favicon.ico will only be 16x16 pixel size. In case the original image would have the same ratio, than the result should be fine.

If you need to put an favicon on your site then look no further as this is by far the easiest way to accomplish it. A simple component that does what it's supposed to very well.
As a total newbie Ive downloaded a few extensions, not being a developer it can be a real struggle at times. This extension was the absolute easiest one to date, brilliant, wish they were all this easy.
Thank you so much, it adds that extra bit of professionalism to the website.
