Recently I have set up my blogger site though it is not yet completed. Actually it is a continuous process as we will get more useful gadget day by day and we will deploy them on the blogger site. When I was trying to customize the favicon for my this site using favicon gadget , I had to face horrible trouble. Let me talk in more details .
First I have created a favicon using favicon.cc and download it.
Changing the favicon is very easy in blogger just like as uploading an image. That's why I download it for later use. Then I open favicon gadget to upload my favicon form Layout option of the Dashboard. I tried to upload it by showing the proper path of the favicon. But it failed as 'Not a valid file type' . I double checked the file and its properties . What is the file extension? Is it .ico ? Is it square in dimensions , I mean 16px x 16px or 24px x 24px or 32px x 32 px? And Is it less than 100kb ? I found everything is perfect . I tried once more , But failed again as before.
After a few times , I have tried with another browser Google Chrome and succeed. I understood , browser cache was the main culprit for that browser. Hope, this experience will be helpful for someone who will face trouble with favicon or any image uploading to the server.

I believe this is actually the most useful blog I've been through this entire day.
