this causes a blue dot to be displayed instead of the favicon:

GroupSpeedDial uses very large images for favicon.
Need the ability to change favicon, or set a maximum size for favicon to avoid problems.

Device info:

• operating system: Windows 10
• Browser and version: Firefox 132.0.2
• GroupSpeedDial version: v26.0

Thanks for the report!

The code for favicon download is pretty old now and it does look for the biggest favicon there is.
But situation is not that simple, for example:

• in some places, favicons are 24px large (in list layout / search / multi-page dials)
• if you increase page zoom or font size in Options, the icon size needs to be bigger too
• if you have a high resolution screen, for example with 200% scaling (like many modern 4K notebooks), you need double resolution favicon, so ideally at least 48px
• real world is a messy place, some pages gives you only 16px ".ico" or 512px huge PNG, for example this biggest Czecho-Slovak e-shop Alza:
  

But I see the issue, some pages will indeed serve a different picture which is not suitable as favicon.
Although the example with 512px image you've posted is clearly a website issue :).

I'll upgrade the code so that it will prioritize 48px/32px icons if there is one.
There is also plan to add "customize favicon" option, which will allow you to fix specific favicons.
