Does anyone know how to do this without using an online tool, or a program? Like from the tools on your computer. |

| | You need a image editor to do it like Gimp, PhotoShop, Paint.net so it can be converted. And IcoFX Jerry |

Gimp worked perfectly. As far as I know it will remain free, and you can create as many Icons as you want. I don't like the paint tools that come with it though. I ended up using Windows 7 paint that came with it, and then copy->paste in Gimp. |
