Download www.irfanview.com It is a free image program, you can save your photos as
icons. Download the plug-in's too.
Icons are usually very small, you might want to resample your photos.

save it as your-title.ico. This is the standard for icon
file extentions.

no, you cannot just rename it. first, you need to make sure that your
picture is the rigth deminsions to be an icon. If they are not the right
size, it's not going to look anything like the oringial. check out the site
below for all you need to know.

find the picture that you want to create as an icon. right click -->open with
-->paint, DO NOT EDIT! got to file-->save as-->name it what ever you want **REMEMBER TO ADD .ico TO END OF FILE NAME! **-->SET FILE TYPE TO: 24-bit Bitmap (*.bmp;*.dib)-->save in C:/Windows/system 32.
Now, right click the shortcut of choice and click properties-->then click the shortcut tab-->at bottom click change icon...-->click browse-->My Computer-->Local C:/drive-->Windows-->system32-->scroll, find, and select your picture/icon...(it should look like you picture, if not just search for the name of the file)-->click ok, ok, ok.
That should be it.
