Stupidity is its own punishment.

Ever wondered why some websites have a little picture next to the url in your address bar or why a picture is next to their name in your bookmarks?

That's called a Favicon and anyone can add one to their website.
Favicons help with branding your website and making it more memorable to visitors.

First you need to generate that itty bitty picture.  This is easy to do!
Just visit this site:  http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/

Follow their directions and you'll have that neat little picture on your website too! 

Note:  Zen Carts already have the 'code' built into them, so you can skip that part.  All you will need to do is upload the favicon image into your public_html folder.
