Hello everyone,

I've posted recently on the topic of favicons. Here's the second round!

First of all, check this before/after picture of a random section of voat:
[1320×610] http://favicon.netk6.com/voat.png

If you would like to try it yourself, follow the instructions here.
It's a JavaScript bookmark that adds the linked website's favicon next to each submission:

var n, i, a, d, l;
n = document.querySelectorAll('div.entry p.title span.domain a');
for (i = 0; i < n.length; ++i)
{
    a = n[i];
    if (1 !== a.childNodes.length) continue;
    d = a.textContent;
    if ('v/' === d.substr(0, 2)) d = 'voat.co';
    l = a.lastChild;
    a.insertBefore(new Image(16, 16), l).src = 'http://favicon.netk6.com/16/'+d;
    a.insertBefore(document.createTextNode(' '), l);
}
void(0);

Here are a few other examples of link decorations:

There are now more than 12 million favicons available.

By the way, I'm looking for cool ideas for a short domain name related to favicons, e.g. favi.co, but that one's already taken, obviously.

After that, it's getting upgraded to HTTPS.

And eventually, I will ask Atko in /v/voatdev if he would like to implement it on the server side. The required modifications should be minimal, as the domain name is already available next to each submission.

Thoughts? Questions? Suggestions? Bugs to report?

I'm all ears!
