Just found this tutorial and I am so glad I did - following this, I just made my very first icon. So thank you! I realize I still do have a very long way to go though, LOL.

I was just wondering, I'm on a Mac, and I'm using PS CS2. For some reason, it didn't want to accept the custom-made pattern. I keep getting the error message "This pattern file is bad or corrupted". I've tried re-downloading and installing several times to no avail. Did anyone else experience something similar?

Again, thank you for a wonderful job!!
