While discussing one of my previous nuggets, another cool tip came up, and I was asked to make it a full-fledged nugget, so here goes. If you design a VI icon in another application (like Microsoft Paint), you can drag the image file from Windows Explorer or your desktop into the icon image area in the upper-right corner of your VI window. This will automatically update the B&W, 16, and 256 color icons of the VI. I just tried with several image file types...this nugget works with BMP, JPG, GIF, and PNG files. It does not appear to work with TIF files.

I don't think there is a size limitation...if the image you attempt to drag is greater than 32x32 pixels in size, I believe it will be shrunk to fit in the 32x32 square.
