Feed Logo Question

[imablogger]

I read Yaro's blog in Bloglines, and at the top of Bloglines it shows the blog description but also a custom logo to the right of the blog description. I'd love to know how to set up my logo in the same area for my blog.

Thanks for any help!

I'm actually having trouble with that aspect of my blog but I'm pretty sure if you use Feedburner.com you can set up the graphic there.

Sounds good, I'll look there!

Thanks Yaro for your help with this and all the other great info you provide!

I actually found this option last night, but my internet connection died before I could come in here and tell you where to go.

Log into Feed Burner. If you haven't set up your feed yet, then do that.

Click on your feed.

Click on the Optimize tab at the top.

Click on the Feed Image Burner stick under Services on the left side.

That's where you specify the image, I believe. I haven't tested it yet.

Do you guys think that the RSS or feedburner logo is more easily understood than the 'add to My Yahoo', 'add to Google', 'add to My AOL' etc ?

From my understanding most people dont know what RSS is. Yaro's response on this thread kind of points to the issue also.

Have any of you experimented with placing the Yahoo/Google/AOL/MSN logos higher or more prominently? Is it only because feedburner gives you stats that you place their logo higher? The audience of RSS-savvy RSS reader users are probably fewer than the RSS-ignorant My Yahoo users. A lot of the mass population dont know they are reading a blog when they read a blog, they just think its a well formated webpage that is chronologically formatted and fresher (which it is).
