You can also use other programs such as photoshop, fireworks, etc. I imagine a search on google would turn up a long list of tutorials on how to create an icon. This is a good idea for a future post... If you prefer, you can copy an icon from any other Mac app: http://macdevelopertips.com/system/changing-an-application-icon.html If you install the Mac developer tools (ie, Xcode), there is an application in the Applications/Utilities folder called Icon Composer.
