"Site" icon as part of feed?

This may be slightly off-topic, but how do you embed a “site” icon in your feed? Some sites (like My Yahoo!) display a small graphic next to the name of most feeds you add to the page. For example, the Slashdot feed has an image of a slash and a dot, Reuters has a globe, etc. Assuming I have my own image, how would I go about getting it included in my feed using textpattern?

Do you already have a <a href=“http://www.chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/”>favicon</a> in your site root, so that it displays in a browser? Because I’ve always thought that if it shows in a browser’s address bar, it will also show up in a feed.

(I’ve been wrong before, however, so some confirmation would be nice.)

Looked at another CMS I have installed and this is what it contains after the docs line in the RSS 2.0 feed.

<code>
<docs>http://backend.userland.com/rss</docs>
<image>
<url>http://my.domain.com/images/mylogo.gif</url>
<title>My Domain</title>
<link>http://my.domain.com/</link>
</image>
</code>

Hope that helps.

And in Atom, anyone knows if that’s possible ?
