You can do any of the above. To enlarge a little:

1. Choose Image Library from the Development menu.
2. Click "New Library" and give your icon library a name.
3. Open the stack with the images you want to put in the library, select
them, and use either the "Move Selected Image to Library" or "Copy Selected
Image to Library" button (depending on whether you want to leave them in
the stack).

You can create the images in any way you want - create them using the paint
tools, or import them using the Import As Control item in the File menu.

(Please note that there is a bug in 1.1.1b1 which may cause problems when
moving images into an image library. This bug will be squashed in 1.1.1b2.)
