So I've had someone request that we do a FavIcon for Guild Wars Guru. Just wanted to post here to see if any of you fine artists and designers might be able to come up with!
Ideas I had were doing a GW helmet or shield. The G in Guild Wars. So if you'd like to help out please just post your ideas here.

It has to be saved as an icon and there are a lot of free websites out there that can do this for you. Examples below:

If you want to do it in Photoshop here's a site that gives a walk through with the plugins:

2 questions: Whats a favicon? is it the icon that shows up on the firefox bookmark?

And: would the icon maker in MS visual studio.net 2003 be able to do this, and can it convert a image file into a .ico without having to get all complicated like?

I think the Golden 'G' would be ideal. Looking at FavIcons for other sites, the ones that grab you are simple and bright.
