Ugly icon rendering

[soullivaneuh]

On Chrome, the base favicon become uglier:

On the right, the icon after Tinycon integration.

Mine is looking even more worse. Using Chrome... My favicon has all three resolutions (16px 24px 48px) in one file. Maybe that's the problem?

Another problem I have is that the transparency of the favicon gets removed when using tinycon.

It could be, try using a plain png version of the favicon and see if you get the same artifacts?

Okay, I see the problem. I read that the favicon should not be set in the

of a page. But I needed to use to make it work with iOS. Tinycon tries to get the first favicon it can find in the :

  var getCurrentFavicon = function(){

    if (!originalFavicon || !currentFavicon) {
      var tag = getFaviconTag();
      currentFavicon = tag ? tag.getAttribute('href') : '/favicon.ico';
      if (!originalFavicon) {
        originalFavicon = currentFavicon;
      }
    }

    return currentFavicon;
  };

That way it took a different image as favicon.

I fixed it that way:

Tinycon.setImage('@Url.Content("~/favicon.ico")');
Tinycon.setBubble(0); // I need to set it to 0 first, because setBubble only redraws the favicon the second time it is called (at least in current Chrome)
