32x32 favicon

Great that favicon saving now works... but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work as it should

I have a 32x32 png which works on my own site, the same png uploaded to smugmug and set as the favicon looks like its been compressed or downsized

Make a 16x16 jpg or png and make it perfect, then upload and use that.

Browsers support 32x32, why should Smugmug make me use a smaller one?

Especially on Retina displays where a 32x32 icon is required to have your tab icon be nice and sharp and detailed...

Proper favicon support would be good.

Reading the wikipedia page on favicons it seems all browsers treat things differently - which favicon they use depending on order, format and size etc. If smugmug could handle all that for us and present the browser with the best favicon it can support that would be very useful.

It looks like smugmug just resizes whatever you give it to 16x16 and puts one entry in the page:

        <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://photos.boo.org/photos/i-SpjPjHq/0/16x16!/i-SpjPjHq-16x16!.png" type="image/png" />

I notice that Smugmug itself uses a 64x64 ico image
