[QUOTE="mac57, post: 224387, member: 17052"] The ultimate format is .icns, but I don't know if Photoshop will generate it. However, it doesn't have to, and you don't have to size your image down either. Create your icon as you like it, at any size whatsoever. Save it in any standard format (PNG, XPM, JPG, etc.). Get yourself the excellent freeware Iconverter program (go to [url]www.versiontracker.com[/url] to get it) and use it to convert the result to .icns format. This is what I have done. I have used this to import a large number of open source KDE icons to Mac. [/QUOTE]
