usual web page icon. The KARC icon is a small graphic of our logo shown at
the top of the page. If you are familiar with changing bookmark icons, you can skip the tutorial below. If not download the icon file and read through the tutorial. You can save this file for viewing offline by clicking on 'File' 'Save As'. First you will need to download the icon file and save it to your hard drive. Save the file to 'My Documents'; a folder called 'Icons'; or a folder of your choice.

Move your mouse to highlight the bookmark for the 'Kingston Amateur Radio Club' Right-click on 'Kingston Amateur Radio Club' Click on 'Properties' Click on 'Change Icon' Click on 'Browse' and find the 'karc.ico' file, in our example it is on the 'C' drive in the 'Icons' folder. Highlight the filename 'karc.ico' and then click on 'Open' The KARC icon will be highlighted and the filename will show as 'C:\Icons\karc.ico'. If you have selected the correct icon then click on 'OK' otherwise click on 'Browse' to find your icon file. The KARC icon will show next to Kingston Amateur Radio Club. Click on 'OK' to apply the icon to the bookmark. The icon may not show in the Favorites/Bookmarks list until you close the browser down and reopen it. When you next look at the Favorites/Bookmarks you will see the KARC icon instead of the web page icon. That's all there is to it, you can apply this method to add icons of your choice to any bookmark 73 Chip, VA3KGB |
