Stomod allows you to upload a favicon for your blog. A favicon, short for "favorite icon," is a small, iconic image that represents a website. It is typically displayed in the address bar of a web browser, in the list of bookmarks, and next to the site name in a browser tab. Favicons are often the logo of the website or a simplified image related to the website's content or brand.

The favicon can be of PNG format and up to 5MB in size. The recommended dimensions for the favicon is 512px x 512px.

To change your favicon, from your blog dashboard, go to Settings → Appearance and under the “Favicon” you can either drag and drop your favicon over the dotted box or your can click to open the file picker and select your favicon:

Once you have picked your favicon, a preview should appear above the drop zone shown above and you should be able to click on Save Changes to update your blog with the new favicon once you are satisfied with it. Below is a video of the whole process:
