    Well it should also show up on the right of the Address Bar automatically...

    <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/wmseo.com"><img src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon32x32.png" border="0" /></a>

    Edit your template and find a place to paste the code in and save it then republish...

    You would have to open it in an editing program Like PhotoShop or The GIMP and then select the colors you want to change...

    I would not advise that because the look & color of the Icon is a "Symbol/Trademark" etc. for Feeds and is recognized for that because of it's design and color...


    If you must maybe try one of these "Free Programs" programs...


    The GIMP
    Tutorials


    Gimp Shop

    Irfranview Image editor

    Paint.net


    FREE Photo Editors
