Hi Mansour,

Here's the quite-ugly overriden template I use to do the same sort of
things for my titles, hope it helps:

<xsl:template name="graphical.admonition">
  <xsl:variable name="id">
    <xsl:call-template name="object.id"/>
  </xsl:variable>
  <xsl:variable name="graphic.width">
     <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="admon.graphic.width"/>
  </xsl:variable>

  <fo:block id="{$id}" xsl:use-attribute-sets="orm.zero.para.spacing">
    <xsl:attribute name="line-stacking-strategy">max-height</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:if test="self::note|self::tip">
      <xsl:attribute name="margin-left">14pt</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:if>
    <fo:list-block provisional-distance-between-starts="{$graphic.width} + 18pt"
                   provisional-label-separation="18pt">
      <fo:list-item>
          <fo:list-item-label end-indent="label-end()">
            <fo:block>
              <fo:external-graphic height="auto">
                <xsl:attribute name="width">auto</xsl:attribute>
                <xsl:attribute name="src">
                   <xsl:call-template name="admon.graphic"/>
                </xsl:attribute>
              </fo:external-graphic>
            </fo:block>
          </fo:list-item-label>
          <fo:list-item-body start-indent="body-start()">
            <xsl:if test="$admon.textlabel != 0 or title">
              <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="admonition.title.properties">
                <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="object.title.markup"/>
              </fo:block>
            </xsl:if>
            <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="orm.admonition.properties">
                  <xsl:choose>

                  <!-- Modification to adjust for tip/note paw print -->
                    <xsl:when test="self::tip|self::note">
                      <xsl:attribute name="padding-top">7.5pt</xsl:attribute>
                      <xsl:attribute name="margin-left">-12pt</xsl:attribute>
                      <xsl:attribute name="margin-top">7.5pt</xsl:attribute>
                    </xsl:when>
                    <xsl:otherwise>
                      <xsl:attribute name="margin-left">2pt</xsl:attribute>
                    </xsl:otherwise>
                  </xsl:choose>
                  <xsl:apply-templates/>
              </fo:block>
          </fo:list-item-body>
      </fo:list-item>
    </fo:list-block>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

The reference attribute sets:
  <xsl:attribute-set name="orm.zero.para.spacing">
    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">0pc</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
  </xsl:attribute-set>

  <xsl:attribute-set name="orm.admonition.properties">
    <xsl:attribute name="space-after">6pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">42pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="end-indent">42pt</xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="font-size">9pt</xsl:attribute>
