Your icons are not useless.  You can use ResEdit to manipulate the
icon families directly.  They can be found in the resource forks of
your programs and/or in the invisible icon file of each volume.

Personally I prefere it.  You can either alias them and have an icon
on your desktop or(and) have them appear in the Apple menu.  Loading
in the cdev panel under 6.0.x could take a _long_ time without a disk
