What i mean with the phrase " domain icon " ? Check the icon near the site link .

OK , let's start ! For example we want to add in our LineageII site an icon like this
http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/8365/faviconbo4.jpg
IF you working your LineageII site with diskw , go in your image's folder . For example
C:\Documents and Settings\LoStRe\Επιφάνεια εργασίας\diskw\www\skins\matrix\img
And put the icon there ! ( You can use your own icon 16 x 16 )
After that , go in your skin and find the file " style " .
OPEN the file and add this command :
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="DomainOfYourSite/skins/(your skin name)/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
SO it will be something like that :
<title><? echo "$htitle";?></title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://localhost/skins/matrix/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<link REL="StyleSheet" HREF="skins/none/style000.css" TYPE="text/css">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251"><style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
background-color: #000000;
}
-->
IF you follow the guide step by step the results will be as the following picture :

IF you run your site in a company , you have to upload the icon 16 x 16 in your host and you have to add the command in the style of your site . With the same way .
This tool is working for all web sites ! I just gave an example about LineageII
Don't forget that with this command you can add domain icon FREE !
UPDATE :
.png : New programs, like photoshop, can use and edit images better in png format.That's how some users put their icon in png format.There's a little problem here.If you need to put this like .png, IE(The regural Internet Explorer) won't detect it sometimes.Other known browsers (ex. Mozilla Firefox ) will recognize it with no problem.
BOTH : If you need to insert the png but have a backup ico file for the IE users, then you need to enter an if condition in your html code:
<link href="/path/to/favicon.ico" rel="icon"/>
<![if ! IE]>
<link href="/path/to/favicon.png" rel="shortcut icon"/>
<![endif]>
