I have a Windows application which will run in Windows XP and newer (i.e. Vista/7). According to the Vista UI Guidelines, the standard sizes are 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256 (XP standard sizes do not include the 256x256 icon). In addition to those sizes, I also have 96x96 and 128x128 (and could create more).
Which of these icon sizes should I include? Will the shell actually use the "non-standard" sizes, or will I simply bloat my application?

I have been learning a lot about writing Objective-C code and designing in Interface Builder and I wanted to set icons for my simple programs.
I added the same JPG to all the size fields in Icon Composer and got an ICNS, but I couldn't figure out how to add it to the project. I also couldn't find the answer on the internet, because the search terms are too generic...
Thank you in advance.

I simply want to have an .ico file that has multiple sizes of the icon image contained within it. I'd like it for use in a cross-platform desktop application (so that, e.g. on Windows, the 16x16 size is used for the app's top bar but a 32x32 size version is used when the various open apps are shown when using Alt-Tab). Once I have that .ico file, I know how to use it within my widget toolkit to get this effect, but I don't know how to get it.
What process should I use to make such a file?

How could I style the color, size and shadow of icons from Font Awesome's Icons?
For example, Font Awesome's site will show some icons in white and some in red but won't show the CSS
for how to style them that way ...

I want to use up/down icons like the ones used by "mail" in the upper-right corner when you're viewing a specific message. Are these icons available for free anywhere?
Beyond that, are there any sites with free navigation bar, toolbar, or tab bar icons?
Thank you!

The <application>
tag for the Android Manifest contains a logo attribute which I have never seen before. What is the difference between your application's icon and its logo? Is it used purely for market?

In Apple's iPhone apps (like Contacts), they have a nice magnifying glass icon at the top of the table view index. Since the table view index API is character-based, I assume that this magnifying glass is a Unicode character. So far I've resorted to placing a question mark character there, but that looks lame.
Can anyone tell me what character the magnifying glass is?

I'm looking for an HTML or ASCII character which is a triangle pointing up or down so that I can use it as a toggle switch.
I found ↑ (↑
), and ↓ (↓
) - but those have a narrow stem. I'm looking just for the HTML arrow "head".

How do I create a resource that I can reference and use in various parts of my program easily?
My specific problem is that I have a NotifyIcon that I want to change the icon of depending on the state of the program. A common problem, but one I've been struggling with for a long time.

I've made myself a bookmarklet, and it functions just fine, but when added to a toolbar in Opera or Firefox, it just takes on the default bookmark icon for the browser (a globe and a star, respectively). My site has a favicon, and the window, tab and even [site] bookmark uses the favicon I've specified. Just not my bookmarklet.
How can I code my site or bookmarklet so that the bookmarklet gets the favicon, too?
I'm aware of various manual hackery techniques users can use to set the favicon after the fact, but those are undesirable solutions.
