How to add a Favicon without using root directory?

[twiggy0]

I'm trying to add a Favicon without using a root directory, anyone know how to do this?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I found this code which worked, is this the optimal way of doing it?

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="www.PlaceImageURLHere.com/imageurl" />
