Hey guys,

I really like the small icons that some websites have for their sites. They show up in the tabs in Firefox etc.

I would like to create some for some sites I'm designing. How do I go about creating them?

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

It's called a favicon, and you can read all about it on Wikipedia. It even tells you how to add them to your site.

Very true about Wikipedia, but for the most part it's a pretty reliable source for initial info. Don't do a research paper using it, but for a casual information reference it's pretty good.
