Summary:  Set the INITed bit

  To make the Finder notice changes to icons, you need to clear 
the INITED bit under the ResEdit Get Info. When the Finder 
launches, it updates its info on all programs whose INITED bit
is turned off, and then sets the bit. 
  After you make your changes, and clear the bit  you need to 
quit the Finder--by re-booting or (preferably) by using the Quit
Command (if you installed the new fmnu resources from Sumex) or 
by Force Quitting with Command-Option-Escape. When the Finder
restarts, look for your updated icons.
