How is the image used for the Tiles in the New Tab page decided

Looking at the Tiles on my New Tab page I see that the images from my own site that it used as thumbnails are extremely small and makes the tile look very blurry instead of sharp.

How does Firefox decide which image to use as the thumbnail. The page it takes the image from does not present the image at the thumbnailed size at any point but only as large images so it must be something you can define somewhere on your web page, so that Firefox grabs a proper image.
