Make Your Own Personalized Icons in Windows XP

It's extremely easy to create your own icons in Windows XP. Here you
go: Open paint and on the Image menu, click Attributes. Type 32 for
both the width and height of the document, and make sure that Pixels
is selected under Units. Click [OK] to create a new 32x32 - pixel
document : the size of an icon.

Now add type, color, or do what ever you'd like to with your image.
When you're finished, open the File menu and click "Save As". Use the
dialog box to choose where you want to save your file, then give it a
name followed by ".ico" (without quotes), and click "Save". (The
extension ".ico" tells Windows that it's an icon file). Now you can
change any shortcut or folder to your own icon and just browse to it
on your hard drive.
