Well now that we're on that subject... a hacker co-worker of mine and
I recently tried to add our own icons to the SunDesk icons file
(bitmaps of Herman (hiya!) and greGory (kii kii).  It was easy enough
to add the new icons using the upgraded Resedit colour editing
resources and then assign resource IDs to the icons, but we were
unable to use the icons in any way.

We even tried assigning the SunDesk colour icon resource numbers to
our new icons and you know what happened?  Absolutely nothing
different.  It is possible to EDIT the colour icons and those changes
DO appear in the icons (for example I can put tomato stains on the
trash can using the colour resource editor stuff and SunDesk displays
the modified trashcan fine and dandy).

So now we're trying to figure out how SunDesk equates it's colour
icons with the standard desktop icons.  It doesn't seem to be by
resource ID number because we can change those numbers and the same
icons keep coming up.

Another question... is there a way to give individual folders their
own icons or must that ALWAYS come out of the Finder's (or in this
case SunDesk's) icons?
