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.

These two Googled links might help. 1, 2.

I found those by entering the following words into Google; create icon for xcode project.

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.
