I asked everyone I could around here, and it doesn't seem possible
to create icons from scratch purely inside HyperCard.  In ResEdit
I couldn't copy from ICN# and paste into ICON (or into anything
else, like MacPaint).  If you can find an ICON you like, you can
copy and paste it, but most of the good ones I found were ICN#s.

I was reduced to using ResEdit to opening the ICON window, creating
a new one, and opening the window of the ICN# I liked beside it.
Then I would manually copy it, bit-by-bit.  No joke that it's slow.

The only reasonable way would be to use Iconographer (?) or some
other icon-creation application.  Does anyone know how to turn an
ICN# into an ICON or move them into and out of MacPaint?
