I think what is happening here, and what happened with me, is that
FileMan takes the first icon out of the file for its use. Just change
the icon in FileMan, by selecting from the icons in your program. I don't
know how to make it default to the one you want. I think that the
resource editor puts the icons in alphabetically.
