Maybe a minor point, but how to replace the `/uibuilder/common/images/node-blue.ico` ?  
In the template

```auto
    <title>Blank template - Node-RED uibuilder</title>
    <meta name="description" content="Node-RED uibuilder - Blank template">
    <link rel="icon" href="./images/node-blue2.ico">

```

it is specified and works.  
But even a copy of that icon with e.g. `/node-blue2.ico` does not show the blue UIbuilder icon anymore! And no other `.ico` do!?

Hi, if you want your own image, you can put it into `<uibRoot>/common/` or into your instance `src` folder.

I like to keep such things in an images sub-folder but some people prefer to use `assets`, it doesn't really matter.

Lets say you have a standard Node-RED and uibuilder install and an uibuilder instance named `test`.

`~/.node-red/uibuilder/common/` maps to the URL `../uibuilder/common/`

`~/.node-red/uibuilder/test/src/` maps to the URL `./`.
