Please see this thread for where the idea has come from and some links to other sites detailing the format of an icon file

I'm going to need some help to set this in motion because I don't fully understand what is required myself
It looks like we need to program an editor that is capable of drawing/modifying two or three different size icons namely 16x16, 32x32 and 48x48 with a standard set of colours.
There is then also two layers that are required, the AND and the XOR mask. From what I can understand this is to do with transparency.
Once the image has been created we then need to save it to a file that is correctly formatted to be recognized as a valid Icon file (which interestingly can contain more than one image). A good example of an icon file with several images included is the WiFi icon on your device!!!!
Who's up for the challenge?
Can anyone shed some more light on what we actually need to do to make this work?
I've got to admit that creating the designer I think should be easy enough but I've had very little involvement with creating files so that will be my biggest hurdle
