MoltenWhale,

I'm not familiar with xcode, but you can have an icon if you drag the app the the dock. It would be created automatically.

Make an icon, *.icns and drag it into the resources folder of the XCode window.

Open Info.plist and add this to it:

Code:
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>IconFileNameNoExtensions</string>

If you need help transferring an icon format from anything to icons, Make a new icon, 512 x 512, open Icon Composer, drag it into the biggest box, and click "import to all sizes" or somehthing like that.
