Information on how to make own taskbar icons - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hey guys!
I'm planning on making my own taskbar icons, but I can't find any information about how to make them.
First of all I want to know, what is the size of those icons,
I would like to know how I can edit them to actually work in my taskbar and
I would like to know how to make a .cab, so it's easy to install them for everybody!
Thanks in advance

Program Icons
Is there a way to change a program's icon. Some programs such as TCPMP have icons that I'd just rather not look at. Is there anyway that I could edit to icon to my liking. Thanks
Transparent Icons
Greetings all... I'm currently editing my Welcome Center slider panel to show my custom apps. I am in dire need of instructions to make icons transparent. I am searching for icons for my panels and I know there's some editing needed to make them transparent and "glossy" for that polished look.
1) Which program should I use to edit?
2) Where do I get this program?
THANKS!
Try photoshop, I said something to you about this in another post on another thread, like 5 minutes ago.
Here.. I'm gonna do you a big favor and send you here... http://www.iconarchive.com/

Icon issues
Hello All,
I was hoping someone might be able to help me out I am running Kavana's 6.1 rom and when I hit the start menu button it switches to the recent programs menu but no icons will display until I hit the all programs button. Sometimes they show but 80% of the time they dont and was wondering if anyone knew a way to fix this. Thank You!
Weird... Reinstall the ROM maybe ?
I’m a little bit of an organization/customization freak, especially with my phone, so I customized every panel I could. I even photoshoped up a few of my own icons. I attached a few pics of the panels, there's about 31 icons in the zip. Enjoy
EDIT
Heres some quick instructions
Unzip the file and dump the icons u want in the \Windows folder, then use CHome Configurator to set targets to the icons you want to use
Any chance off uploading your reg files for your "My Programs"
Please
In what folder do i upload this zip?
\Windows folder
Do i just dump everything there? or create a folder?

Very pretty! Say... Can I borrow your icon for the Weather Options and use it in my .cab file ? Would I flatter myself too much if I was to assume that the shortcut you made points to the options panel of my CHome Weather application ?

i believe he's after the photoshop files
SOLVED
Because I don't know how to make a cab, I used manila. The icons look nice on my HD.
I think these are created (or at least, found on the thread) by bluemetalaxe. Good to ask him first before adapting them.. or at least, give him the due credit.
Yes I found these icons on xda... but that was months ago. So I didn't know who to give credit for it. But i already said i'd like them. Didn't say they where created by me.

Changing start menu icons??

It's there a way to change the start menu icons??
Have been searching for about 2 days and no luck for me...
Check this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525341
I am also interested in changing the main menu icons.
But as far i can tell there is no great enthusiasm among
people in this forum to get this going...
Anyway, the guy that posted the thread knows how to do this...
I only changed the original icons to a background ones to make
them look better.
the thing is, is there a way to examined that .cab to know what to do or something?
I can make you a CAB for WM 6.5 Prof Style icons and one for Snap-alike icons!
Hey
Hey frauhottelmann
Could you create a cab or .dll(even better) containing icons for
bunch of default and not default programs (fring, twitter etc...)
So when we use it if we have the program it will change the icon
if not... nothing will happen....
And if we like to be able to change the icons in the .dll
That would be awesome!!!
We could call the people to create a list of programs we use...
And we could create icon collections or something...
That would be great...
btw could you teach me how to do it my self?
i'm insterested as well in learning how to create and change the icons on the start menu.
please teach us...

Hi, i am new on this forum, but i have been following it for the past two months (great forum by the way). I own htc excalibur, and it is a great phone but there is only one thing I want to change and that are icons in start menu. I have found two softwares for changing icons ( JWMD icon changer, and Thekn's icon changer) and none of them worked on 3vo series ROM. So my question is, can someone help me, or make tutorial of making CAB file for icons, so when you install it on the phone all icons are changed. I have found one thread ( cant remember the name) where someone uploaded 2 packs of icons. If someone could show me how to make CAB file of icons, i will do my best to make as much icons packs as I can THANKS in advance
