When you bookmark a website, if you click the 'Add to Homescreen' option it will add the website to the homescreen.

If the website does not have a specified icon, it will just use a mini-screenshot of the web page for the icon. If the website does have an iPhone/iPod Touch icon (they are the same thing), it will use that.

Of course, whatever the iPhone/iPod Touch uses for an icon will automatically be rounded off and given the glossy overlay.

The winner is #2!!!

Only one issue I see is that it is a black icon. It will probably need some kind of border around it similar to the calculator icon to make it visible on the black background.


I understand that, but where does it pull that icon from?

I assume it is buried in the html code, if so what is that code?

Alright .. it's up. Congrats to RyanCesiel of team 245.

If you've put the icon on your home page already .. you may need to remove it and then re-add. Not sure if it updates periodically or what ..
