I've been wondering, now do you make a custom icon for your game and it's folder?

I draw my graphics in Appleworks, send them to Photoshop for effects and touchup and then use Icon Machine to save them as icons:

Seems to me you could just go into photoshop and create a 32*32 file and copy that onto a folder via info.

I used to have this crazy 30 step workflow to carry transparency but I forgot it...

It does if you save it, open it in preview, copy it from preview, then paste it onto file icon.
