'drag and drop' puts shortcut on desktop, but shortcut favicon is a white box with a very small centre logo/picture. How do I get a full-sized favicon logo/picture (no white box) ?

Hello CloudCatcher.

This is the way Firefox handles desktop icons. If you want you can manually set an icon by right clicking the shortcut and then go to Properties > Change Icon.
