    I want to replace the pencil image on the browser tab with my own image. Not sure how to do that or where in the settings I can find that option?

    You're probably referring to the favicon:

    You can't change this within JotForm's Form Builder.

    The only way around this is to use your form's Full Source code > embed it on a page > then add a <link> tag to the header for the favicon.

    JotForm really needs to fix this and add it as a feature.  The 'embedding form on another website' process does not work for differentiating multiple forms and is far far to cumbersome to carry out.

    What JotForm fails to understand is that customers who wish to deploy multiple forms do NOT want them all to look alike on iOS tablets or other devices.  It leads to confusion for end users when they see several icons/apps that look exactly the same (and must try to differentiate them via the small text).

    This is simply unacceptable. You should be able to easily identify individual forms with individual icons and the only way to do that is to allow individual favicons.

    I understand JotForm's potential difficulty in making every form its own subdomain, but if they already own the top-level domain namespace it shouldn't be cost-prohibitive.

    Please, please fix this.
