How do you make those cool little icons that show up in the address bar? (For example, go to http://www.yahoo.com and see the little red Y! before the "http".)

Is it an HTML tag? What format is the icon in? GIF? Does it have to be a certain size?

I want one!

You create an image file in the root of your web site called favicon.ico. The browsers do the rest...

If you can edit your blog template, adding this:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

in the HEAD section. After <HEAD> and before </HEAD> will let you tell the browser where to look for the file.
