Hi, ive been getting ready to release a game, and ive been having trouble with icons. I use the regular ide. So i clicked where it says "icon" and loaded my icon, then compiled the game. With this, when the game is running, it uses my icon in the upper left corner of the window, but when I look at the exe file on my desktop, it just appears with the regular dark basic icon. I have tried different icon sizes and also having 2 layers to the icon, what is the secret to using all your own icons?

Never mind.

There was never a problem, except for windows vista. Basically, when I said I put it on my desktop, I actually just looked at it in windows explorer with big icons, and saw the db icon. I thought that was the program's icon, when actually vista was just association it with the icon for some reason(I've had the problem before). I copy/pasted it to a different folder and the problem went away.
