As promised last time is here a proper release of `v5.6.0` which I call the "Favicon Overhaul".
This update provides significant changes to the FaviconHandler, providing a new feature in the form of Favicon merging and also a config.yml option to set how ASL should handle images with sizes that aren't exactly 64x64 pixels.
## FaviconHandler improvements
The FaviconHandler has received major improvements. First of all are PlaceholderAPI placeholders now supported.
Additionally was the async handling of Favicon creation simplified, as it was overcomplicated before.
## Favicon merging
A new feature was added called favicon merging.
With this feature are you able to combine multiple sources into a single favicon, allowing more complex, dynamic favicons to be created.
To merge favicons, add new entries to the String separated by semicolons. As an example `${player uuid};border.png` would first place the Player head followed by putting `border.png` over it. The result would be similar to this:

## Favicon resizing
A new option called `faviconStrategy` was added to the `config.yml`. This option allows you to set how ASL should handle Images that have a size that isn't `64x64` pixels.
The default option is `resize` but can be changed to `center` and `none`:
- `center` does not resize the image, but instead centers it as good as possible in the Favicon.
- `none` does not resize the image, nor move it. The image will simply placed at 0,0, which is the top-left corner of the Favicon.
With these features should you be able to create some really cool Favicons for your server.
