You don't need to go through all of that trouble. you can edit icons using microsoft paint. just change it to all files when you are opening and select the one you want to edit, it should open it. if it doesn't try renaming it to a .bmp, they have the same file format anyway. Remember, icons are ALWAYS either 32x32 pixels or 16x16(rarely). if you want to create your own, make a 32x32 image and save it as a .bmp
sorry to brake your heart, Trivor, but it's easyer to use an icon editor then to use paint, cuz with an icon editer, you can chose from the size and make it into a .ico, plus, some icon editors also lets you make cursurs.Quote:

I have used paint to make cursors, it's a .cur extension on a correctly sized .bmp file (not sure exactly, i think its 16x16) and that way you don't have to download programs, you can use what you have right there. it isn't much easier with those programs anyway
but does it make it transpeant?? this programs makes it transpearntQuote:

You can create an Icon through code.
Load a bitmap image (32x32 pixels) in an ImageList.
Add a PictureBox to a form and use code simular to this to create the icon (if you set the MaskColor property of the ImageList you'll get the transparency).
