*Note* This isn't about an Escapist app. That's been done to death.

I'm an avid Escapist user who uses, and loves, his iPhone. As such I have a bookmark on the home menu (where you access the apps from) so I can quickly check the site out. When you make such a bookmark the icon on the screen is a usually a screenshot of the website, however recently (like within the last hour) it has changed to an actual special escapist Icon that looks custom made for this purpose (screenshot below). I haven't done anything is this an iPhone feature of some sort or can The Escapist actually change what is shown on my phone?



WHAT IS HAPPENING?!

Maybe the Escapist just decided to make themselves more professional? it's not a bad thing.

No it's good as it looks far better than before, but I had no Idea it could be done.

It looks really nice. Didn't know that this could happen either. At least it looks better than a screenshot would.

But does this mean that the ecapist can change your phone settings?

Same thing happens on the normal Internet when you bookmark a page, a little icon is saved to tidy things up...

I'm far from bitchin' it looks a lot nicer. I simply didn't know it could be done. I mean I know you can state an icon image in HTML header, but I don't know how to do it with an iPhone image.
