No Problem....you can also use png or gif format.If you have Photoshop, or any other programs like that,open it and create a 16*16 image and save it as .png or gif format [look at the below screenshot below]
Or there are so many online sites which can create a Favicon for you,just google 'free online 16*16 icon generator' .They ask you to upload a picture from your desktop,and they convert it into 16*16 .ico file.
You are just a few steps away from creating a beautiful Favicon for your site....
go to your blog dashboard>Layout>Edit Html
and look for this code
add the following code right after it
<link href='http://www.textmarks.com/images/WidgetAlphaIcon-B.gif' rel='shortcut icon'/>
<link href='http://www.textmarks.com/images/WidgetAlphaIcon-B.gif' rel='icon'/>
replace the 'icon file url' ie http://www.textmarks.com/images/WidgetAlphaIcon-B.gif both the times with the url of your icon.
Any .gif .jpg image would do; search google for favicon .ico
