Description

From the same developer of “bookmark favicon changer” for Firefox and Seamonkey.

Important! - You can change favicon of file URLs only if you enable the option "allow access to file URLs" at the browser extensions page (chrome://extensions) (see screenshot).

Description.
============

Change your bookmark favicon by open the extension’s options page. Right click at your bookmark; the popup menu with option "Change Favicon", "Reset Favicon", "Remove Favicon" and "Export Favicon" will appear.

You can use any image file or any image URL that browser support as a favicon.

Support every size of image file. There is no different in disk space requirement between big and small image size. Every image will be resized and changed to 16x16 pixels png files and saved.

After changing favicon, there is no need for that favicon file to exist again.

After changing favicon, you can reset it back or remove it and use the default one.

Support bookmark favicon export. No matter what it is the original favicon or changed favicon.

Tab icon changer - Bookmark favicon changer can assign you icon to tab icon for the whole domain or subdomain.

“Bookmark Favicon Changer” can do more things such as “simple bookmark management”, “create bookmark shortcut”, “auto hide bookmark bar name”, “import and export database” etc.


Limitation
==========

Unlike Firefox, Chrome do not support right click on bookmark bar. You need to open extension’s options page to change favicon.

Bookmarks that have the same URL will have the same favicon.

You can change favicon only on bookmark that has http, https or file protocol. This limitation comes from Chrome permission for security reason.

You need “Bookmark Favicon Changer” to be active to protect your custom favicon. You can’t change favicon and uninstall the extension; your custom favicon will turn back.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
