Just for something on the bright side, I did manage to find a feature of
IconBuilder that I found really useful. If you select the Document Layout
option you can specifiy what formats a picture will be in. So, you can 
make a file 2 bit and 12 bit. It has a pop-up menu in the bottom right of
the image window for selecting which one you're currently editing. This
is really useful for editing icons for color apps that you'd like to 
also look good in gray scale, since you're app will automatically pick
the correct image to display depending on the output device availble.
