Thank you for your time!
I made the "favicon" and then clicked "Download", it downloaded a txt file with the following in it:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="keywords" content="favicon, favicon generator, favorite icons, browser icon">
<meta name="description" content="Use this online tool to easily create a favorites icon (favicon) for your site. Capable of generating desktop icons as well.">

Hello
Your don't need that code, you just need the "favicon.icon,"
And use this code I gave you before just add it after the < head >
| Code: | | <link rel="shortcut icon" href="path to your /favicon.ico"> |
If you use their code it uses the keywords for favicon!
Upload your favicon and then set the path to it in the above code, then copy the code to your template after the HEAD tag and your done!
