When you add a favorite site to your home screen and it doesn't come with an icon, can you add one ?.. if so... how do you add one ?..

Welcome to iMore! If the web site you're adding to your home screen generates an icon then it will be added to the shortcut. If it doesn't, a screencap of the web page will be added to the shortcut. Unfortunately this isn't customizable by the user without jailbreaking.
For example, Google added its logo when I created a home screen shortcut but KnightCite did not (see image below).

Sometimes while still in Safari, you can zoom up a tab before setting it as a bookmarklet. I did this one of an iMore page. It's the logo in the top left of the page.

IOS 8 added the white part at the bottom.
