Can we get a GM favicon? [Archive]

I have my favorite firefox bookmarks on a custom toolbar that only displays the icon of the website. Most every site has one. GM does not. It only displays a sheet of paper in the address bar. It says "This website does not supply identity information." If this is an easy fix, can we do it? Pleeeease. If it's rocket surgery then don't sweat it, there are bigger problems in this world.
Here's what I'm talking about.

It's a server side image.

^^Thanks EXE, that looks like the answer.

If I knew how to upload an favicon.ico to the root web directory or edit html code without blowing up GM, I'd do it myself.
Paging Grimmy, Bingo or Shogun. Help.

That's weird.

I'm not sure why it wasn't showing. We've had one for years already. I'm not sure why it wasn't showing up.

I went ahead and created a new one, ftp'd it up to the root directory and it's still not showing up.

I'll have to poke around when I have more time, but it isn't working as it's supposed to so it means something is busted up somewhere in the code and that could take a while to figure out.

I messed around with this yesterday, game servers were down, and well I don't see it, and I am using IE7. I know other sites I visit have them and they work, but I wasn't about to start editing code, as I was way too sleepy to be doing that. I'd probably have broken GM or something lol
