The new iPhone software released today supports a custom icon for the WebClip bookmarks added to the home screen.

Please add such an icon (maybe NetNewsWire's) at http://m.newsgator.com/apple-touch-icon.png to your NewsGator web app!

The following is take from Apple's iPhone Dev Cent at https://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/designingcontent.html

Create a WebClip Bookmark Icon
iPhone and iPod touch allow a user to save a WebClip bookmark to your site on their Home Screen.

To specify a bookmark icon for all pages of a web site, place a PNG image named "apple-touch-icon.png" at the root directory of your web server - similar to the "favicon.ico" for site icons.

To override the site bookmark icon on a specific web page, insert a element similar to within the element of the page.

The bookmark icon dimensions should be 57x57 pixels. If the icon is a different size it will be scaled and cropped to fit.

Safari will automatically composite the icon with the standard "glassy" overlay so it looks like a built-in iPhone or iPod application.


Thanks in advance!
