Hey Asher, is the new icon just going to replace Google's in Firefox or am I going to have to crash Firefox randomly and thus have the favicons reset?

Why the engineer?

Honestly I think the "ACS" one in the bottom right of Mercator's first picture is the best.

as usual IE sucks

so the icon will be shown in the address bar ONLY if you have bookmarked the page that you are seeing

Hmm, maybe you could try some of the others posted when you get chance Mark. No one could tell that was an Civ engineer without being told. It's too intricate for the icon.
