Some websites do not have icons associated with them. Is there a way to assign an icon to a bookmark so that it will appear in the bookmark bar?

Chosen solution

I would do the exact opposite, as there are essentially no favicons of any use on what I have on my own toolbar. The only valid icon is with Google Voice and it is the generic Google favicon. Instead I get rid of all of the icons and use very short text names 1-4 chars. Blue for folders, Red for bookmarklets and that one plain bookmark.

See one of previous replies here, plus how to do it your way. Come to think of it Favicon picker may have.cause problems.

sorry some duplication and didn't see the posting I was looking for

Before and after customizations, the following also includes styling changes besides rearranging toolbars and toolbar items.
