Kintaro:
So what format are they?

KernelPanic:
The format is actuall several images bundled together, therefore you need a tool to make them.

Not surprisingly there is a free linux tool for making these:

PNG2ico

Did you go to the link I gave you? It's in the FAQ. The format of a favicon.ico is basically the Microsoft ICO (ICON) format, which contains a 16x16  and a 32x32 image within the ICON.

Here's a tutorial using the "png2ico" utility which might give you a better idea of the format. If you want an even deeper idea of the format, look at the source to "png2ico".

Like Tux mentioned in the previous message.
