Do you know how to make an icon for a folder? If so, take the app off the dock, change the logo, and put it back on.
So the long version:
1. Make icon (in PS or something similar)
2. (If parts are transparent) Save as Tiff and preserve transparency
3. (if parts are transparent) Use Pic2Icon to clean it up a bit
4. Remove app from dock
5. ⌘i on the .tiff
6. Click on the small icon in the corner, ⌘c
7. Find the app, ⌘i, click on the small icon, ⌘v
8. Drag app to dock again
It really doesn't take very much time.

My desktop for the month. Quite plain and simple, compared to a lot of the other ones posted here. But I like simplicity, so yeah...

Btw, it wouldn't usually have those files in the right hand corner, I'm just downloading a couple of torrents and for some reason, transmission wont download to anywhere else but my desktop, despite me changing it in the preferences.

You guys have some really nice desktops btw. :)
