Sorry if this is in the wrong catagory I dont know where else to put it but does anyone know how to change the little picture next to your website name like how ebay has theirs? Also does anyone know how to change the name so it scrolls across the screen or does something? like cyprienwalkers site here? http://www.cyprienwalkermovies.com/
also how do I put a page inside of a page?

My site is here

To make a pic show up next to your url, make a pic and save it as .ico file extension, then just drop that pic in the root of your websites server and name it favicon.ico.

here is the script that is needed

<HEAD>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
var message = new Array();
// Set your messages below -- follow the pattern.
// To add more messages, just add more elements to the array.
message[0] = "Graphics Dont Matter";
message[1] = "Stories Do!";
message[2] = "Cyprien*Walker*Movies";
message[3] = "AND";
message[4] = "Ranch FM";

// Set the number of repetitions (how many times the arrow
// cycle repeats with each message).
var reps = 2;
var speed = 200; // Set the overall speed (larger number = slower action).

// DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE.
var p = message.length;
var T = "";
var C = 0;
var mC = 0;
var s = 0;
var sT = null;
if (reps < 1) reps = 1;
function doTheThing() {
T = message[mC];
A();
}
function A() {
s++;
if (s >

{ s = 1;}
// you can fiddle with the patterns here...
if (s == 1) { document.title = '|||*======||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 2) { document.title = '|||==*====||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 3) { document.title = '|||====*==||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 4) { document.title = '|||======*||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 5) { document.title = '|||====*==||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 6) { document.title = '|||==*====||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s == 7) { document.title = '|||*======||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (s ==

{ document.title = '|||=======||| '+T+' -----'; }
if (C < (8 * reps)) {
sT = setTimeout("A()", speed);
C++;
}
else {
C = 0;
s = 0;
mC++;
if(mC > p - 1) mC = 0;
sT = null;
doTheThing();
}
}
doTheThing();
// End -->
</script>

thanks but I still cant get the Icon thing to work. heres the link

http://webpages.charter.net/braineatingalienkyle/favicon.ico

its in the root directory, it wouldent be because I have a free website would it? I even tried copying a icon from another site and it didnt work

Blebekblebek · March 30, 2006, 12:28:37 AM

you can't put icon on freewebsite since you can't accses to root folder

rocky · March 30, 2006, 05:58:48 PM

Yea but cant you have it so you can put a different picture on each page?

jmr · March 31, 2006, 12:31:46 AM

why dont you just pay a few pounds & buy a domain name of a company that give free web hosting with the name
im in the uk & ive bought a few names of these lot http://www.freevirtualservers.com/free_hosting_features.html
you get 100mb of space & 100 MB Bandwidth loads of scrips (Geeklog, Joomla, Mambo, PHP-Nuke, Post-Nuke, Siteframe, Xoops, etc, etc)
NO ads if you need to host files but are worried about
going over you bandwidth just host them some place like
http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk/
i dont know what country your in but there should be some were similar
you could get braineatingalien.info for £2.99 & then you could mess about in
the root folder

Make sure your icon is 16x16 pixels, and make sure it's exactly "favicon.ico."

(After you save it in Paint or whatever, go into some sort of explorer, and change its extension from .bmp/.jpg/.gif or whatever to .ico)

Then, just upload it to the root, and it should work if it's exactly 16x16 and named correctly.

yes you can change the animation with the text inc the bar.
frames are easy to make as will if you make sure that the file names are correct.

music play is simple links as well menu bar is one page.
