After analyzing the website structure and design of AND website. I figured that the suitable favicon for the website would need to be simple like its website. With the color combination of the website being a whitish/silverfish color with dark font, I decided to make the icon with similar color.
With the use of Adobe Photoshop CS6. I created a canvas with the pixel of 32 x 32. With the help of the Text tool. I created the favicon pixel by pixel. The design consisted of the acronym ‘&’ between two letters ‘A’ and ‘D’. After consent with the project supervisor. I sent it to the project supervisor.
With the use of Adobe Photoshop CS6, I created a simple file with the preset based for a website. I created three different layers for the icon. Each layer consisting a letter (i.e. AND). After creating the letters and placed them accordingly with each other on the canvas, I merged all of the layers into a single layer. I saved the Photoshop file in a PNG format. Then I converted it into .ico format with the help of the website ‘converticon’ www.convertico.com.
The favicon will be added to the necessary locations of the website code.
