Hey All - quick question.

I know this is picky and I know most of you probably couldn't be a*sed with this but I am a little bored at the moment.
When you create a folder in Xpee, you have the option of "Customising" it (I use the term loosly, its not like you can put 21" Rims and an Exhaust system on a folder) Anywho - it allows you to chnage the icon. All is well untill you cant find the correct icon file to go with that folder.

Example: I have a folder I made called Limewire - where, coincidentally, everything I download i.e. music (which is only kept for 24hours so is perfectly legal!! :eek: :D ) is put. I found the icon file for this, and all was dandy.

But I wanted one for Nero too - greedy, I know. So I had a look, and couldn't find the icon file in any Nero folder. So I found an icon - screen printed, photoshoped and looks just like an icon would. Only problem is, when I go to change it, it wont except the format because its:

"Not in Icon File Format, and therefore I refuse to co-operate, complete system lock up" - Slight exageration.

Does anyone know how I can save it to an icon file format, or some software I can use? I have thought about Samurize but I never really got to grips with it? If any one can give me a quick, step by step run through of how to create these, I would be much obliged.

1: Sorry if this has been posted before.
2: Apollogies for terrible spelling and grammar.

Thanks :p

Christian
