Windows 95 Misc - Easy Icon Creation from Bitmaps

Do you have a great bitmap editor but no decent icon editors? Here's a simple solution to your icon-making problems with Windows 95. Create a 32 x 32 bitmap. Use 16 colors if you want to make a standard icon file, more colors if you want to make a high-color icon. Now, after saving your bitmap, just rename the file to have an extensive of ".ico". Presto! Instant icon.
