Hi Graham

I use Iconographer for Mac icon development and Microangelo for Windows icon
development. The Win32 engine has very strict limitations on the icon format
you use. It must be 16 color, 32x32 & 766 byte file. I find Microangelo
creates these icons quite well. Unfortunalty it's a crap format so think
simple.
