What’s a favicon?
A favicon is a 16 pixel x 16 pixel image that appears in the toolbar to the left of your URL. Images can be saved in this format in Photoshop; simply renaming a 16x16 image as “.ico” works in some browsers but not others. Other file formats are supported in selected browsers- see this Wikipedia entry for a comparison. Another use of a favicon is as a shortcut for a pinned website. A “pinned” website is one that gives the user the option of placing a shortcut to the site in their taskbar/toolbar. By using icon overlays- similar to the up/down states of website buttons- webmasters can tell users when something on the site has changed.
