how to set icon (logo) for my recipe

When I browsed the included recipes, I have noticed that some of them have a special icon (logo of the newspaper). I have had a look at the source, but did not find where the logo is defined.

If I create a new recipe and decide to publish it, I would like to include the icon too.
What is the format and size of the icon-logo ?

Google "favicon." There are sites that will grab it from your feed site for you. Supply it with your recipe and Kovid will add it when he adds your recipe.

do you refer to having a 'favicon.ico' on the root of the news website ?

When you submit the recipe to Kovid include the favicon.ico file for your site and it will be added to calibre with the icon.
