One thing you should do when you start your website is to update the site icon sometimes called the

00:06.210 --> 00:07.080
fab.com.

00:07.140 --> 00:12.660
Now different Web sites and different themes have different options for updating this within the sparkling

00:12.660 --> 00:17.180
theme that we're using right now we have an option to update the icon is this little one up here.

00:17.280 --> 00:23.400
You can see for an example I open up the Dilwale Web site and they have a little D up there.

00:23.490 --> 00:29.400
I have another Web site where you can actually find icons called Icon finder dot com and it has a little

00:29.460 --> 00:30.930
logo of their web site.

00:30.950 --> 00:37.470
Now icon finder dot com is a great place to find the icons and graphics that you could use for your

00:37.470 --> 00:41.390
little icon up here if you can create something a little bit more unique.

00:41.400 --> 00:44.970
That's probably a good idea but I just want to use this as an example.

00:45.000 --> 00:45.950
So to change that.

00:45.960 --> 00:49.300
Go to your appearance and customize settings.

00:49.380 --> 00:53.920
Again this is going to be in the sparkling theme settings.

00:53.930 --> 00:58.290
If you're using in a theme it might be in your theme settings as well.

00:58.290 --> 01:02.750
Go to site identity and then under say icon.

01:02.760 --> 01:05.090
We're going to upload a new image.

01:05.430 --> 01:07.110
Let's just go and upload.

01:10.090 --> 01:12.690
Find our tool icon that we downloaded.

01:12.700 --> 01:19.910
It recommends a 512 by 512 pixel image so that this can be used on both your site icon.

01:19.990 --> 01:26.440
And if someone saves your Web site as an app or as a link on their smartphone.

01:26.440 --> 01:30.890
This shows up as that home icon on their phone screen.

01:31.640 --> 01:36.350
If your image is in a perfect square it's going to ask you to crop the image and you can see a preview

01:36.350 --> 01:38.010
of what it looks like right here.

01:38.880 --> 01:46.740
Now you can see that our site has a little icon up here so that's how you add a site identity logo at

01:46.740 --> 01:47.830
the top of your Web site.
