Hi cristian. What I believe you're talking about is called a "favicon," not to be confused with "emoticon." I've never done this before, but I knew what you were talking about, so I looked it up for you. You can find out how to put a favicon in your address bar on this site:

There are two methods, one of which is supposedly easier than the other.

I believe there is a bit of a delay on Facebook's side. After you add it to the page, test it out a little later like tomorrow, and see if it works. Also, you might want to put a full url to the image in the meta tag.

Here's another good blog article on it http://davidwalsh.name/facebook-meta-tags
