if you dont already, sign up for a username on iconator.
there are a couple ways to make icons-
if you are willing to download a software download jasc paint shop 3
you can find a free trial of it for like 30 days.
OR the easiest way or doing it without downloading anything is to go on paint.
your computer should have paint.
go to start, programs, accessories, paint.
once you have paint open, press ctrl-e.
a box should pop up with a width and height box.
in the width box type in 48 and the height box type in 48.
this is the size of a official icon.
then you can put text on the icon using the little A button and drawing a text dialog box.
once you have the right color background you would like the next step is to animate.
this website explains how to animate. which is simpley saving seperate frames and moving the colors to each letter.
i use this method and have made various icons that have been in top icons.
to check out some of my icons here is my iconator page. [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
if you need further help then c above website.
hope this helps!!!
