= | =Homescreen Icon= | ||
In version 1.2 a homescreen icon was added (see example below); if a user bookmarks your iCumulus page onto their Homepage of the iPhone/iPod Touch it will display a simple icon rather than a default blank one. | |||
To achieve this, create an icon that is 57x57 pixels and save it as a PNG file format in the same folder as your iCumulus files on the web server. | |||
In the <head> section of the iCumulus page add the following line: | |||
<pre><link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="icumulus-icon.png"/></pre> | |||
changing the href to the name of your icon file. | |||
Save your HTML page and remember to also update the one in the local PC folder which will be updated by Cumulus. | |||
