The icon editor on cica.cica.indiana is very nice.  Looks like a lot of fun.
I wish I could edit the icons of an existing Windows program, though.  Is there
any utility program that will let me do this?  How about bundling the dozens of
.ICO files into a .DLL file, like another icon file found on cica? Having all
the icons split into separate files like they are now can create significant
overhead in file storage.
