change favicon size

Post by Higurashy18 »

Hi there,

I'm looking forward to enlarge my favicons.
A few weeks ago I saw huge favicons at a ex-coworkers PC. Now I'd like to have this Setting on my own Computer too.
I already looked for enlarging the favicons, but without success.
Maybe there is a way with a css-code?

I hope you guys can help me with my wish.

Best regards!

EDIT: I forgot to tell that I use FF Quantum 59

Hi,

Unfortunately I've only been able to find this on the subject :

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/226 ... dimensions

If you can't find anything useful there, it might be the right place to post a question.

And I found this bug report :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1360477

Any good ?

Try this in userChrome.css:

Code: Select all

/*
 * Make toolbar icons bigger.
 */
  #navigator-toolbox #nav-bar 
   .toolbarbutton-1:not(#back-button):not(#forward-button)
   .toolbarbutton-icon {
      -moz-appearance: none !important;
       min-height: 28px !important;
       min-width: 28px !important;}
Edit: Got to thinking, looked up "favicon"; this may not be the kind
you were thinking of since it can mean almost any kind of icon. Oh, well!

Yeah it can be done. However, most website favicons are 16x16 by default, as supplied by the website, and enlarging them will make them look blurry and, er, horrible.
