Hi there, that's called a favicon. It's installed in the code on the web page itself so I'm not sure you can really modify them.

Here is a tutorial to help you get started if you want to add one to your own website.

Just upload a 16 x 16 icon (it must be in .ico format) and name it favicon.ico. Upload it to your root folder and tadow!

Well, almost.

Need something like this in your HTML

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

I don't use that code in my HTML. But, maybe my icon doesn't work on all broswers?

I ended up using this site for mine.
