Custom Webclip Icons for iPhone
Remember the first time you saw a little web site icon pop up in your browser’s address bar? It was like, “Cool! How did they do that?” Fast forward to 2008 and with the most recent software update for the iPhone, users can save bookmark icons (webclips) to their phone’s desktop. Fortunately, it takes even less time than creating a “favicon.ico” image and you never have to worry about it strange disappearances (IE 6). It’s as simple as creating a 57×57 .png and uploading to your server’s root. Name the file apple-touch-icon.png. Don’t forget to add the rounded border and glassy effect necessary for Apple aesthetic goodness.
