Anything at all, I guess it should match the style of the main site though.

A favicon would be sweet. I'd love to make one for you.
I'll post some later tonight

I'm not pro either, but I can handle Photoshop well enough to give it a try atleast

Here's a few icons I just did.(really quick, sloppy ones.)
Let me know if you find one you "like" and any changes you would like me to make.
1)
2)
3)
4)
Of course, I could make something thats not just a background with PHP written on it, so hit me with any ideas.

I think number 3 is best out of those,
you could try the "<?" tag, but that might no look that good.

I tried that, but the "<" sign gets really messed up. I'll try to find a way to get it in there and still look "ok".

I did one, but it took up most of the favicon and therefore I could only fit "<?ph"
Will redo later.

hmm, that's the style I was thinking of, but there could be a bit more style.
the first one, combined with the third one from before would be good
The pixel limit seems obvious.

I think this looks really bad...
This is about as round as I can make it without it looking too weird.

Perhaps slightly rounded corners would be a nice touch too.

Updated my previous post.
I'm going to bed now, but I'll redo anything if you want me to as soon as I wake up.

Thanks so much for doing that !
http://shiftrage.org/favicons/favi3.ico this one is pretty much perfect.
If its not too much trouble though, could you try the text centred, and perhaps a little darker.

Centered, and pretty much as dark as it gets while still being visible
Could try again tomorrow, after I get some sleep
