Stupid question … new to changing icons … once you download them, how do you convert them to icons (.ico) so Windows (7) recognizes them as icons? ;0

If you are just looking for something super quick and not as worried about the quality (in comparison with IcoFX) then you could try this one too:

Well, from the screenshot, they don’t look very crisp… Which makes me wonder if it would be possible to tweak Window’s resizing algorithms, I think not, but it would be cool (something like sharp bicubic would be very nice).
