I'm sure the answer is easy but for the life of me can't find the answer....

Can I use favicon's on my bookmark bar? I would like to remove the text and just use the icons to allow for more shortcuts.

So am I able to do this?

This question has been asked before... and sadly, it just isn't possible on Mac OS X. This is evidenced by the fact that ZERO of the Mac browsers support it.

That’s not quite true. No version of Safari supports it, and I’m unaware of any method of causing it to support it, but I just checked in Chrome and the bookmarks bar does indeed show the favicons. I believe Firefox does as well.

Firefox doesn't. Not in the Bookmarks Bar itself, anyway. Folders within DO show favicons.

Camino supports it, and it is annoying. Trying to find out how to remove them.
