Just BASIC v2 has an icon maker,editor,write-to-runtime file tool.
I have found difficulty doing a satisfying web search for 32 by 32 *.ico program icons, in the variety that I would want. There found were some sites with icons of PNG, and SVG, and other things. So can one take a photograph with a camera (digital,...) and in some way work with that to take a limited part of the photograph to manage into an icon for one of our programs? So far, I tried MAKING A DRAWING directly in the JB Icon Editor and saved it, but I wonder about any neater ways.

Googling says GIMP could save ICO files slions.net/threads/create-an-ico-file-using-gimp.3/So if it does, take picture you found/icon from other site in any other format (no need to photograph!) , open it in GIM then save as ICO file.
EDIT not sure but write-to-runtime might not work with more then 16 color ICO try some other resource editor (resource editor, resource hacker, whatever) to change ICO in EXE file.

I actually did find an icon site which had an icon of a coffee bean, and the colorings appeared simplified enough; and now I forgot which site it was from.

Just Google Icon file makers, Windows has a free one. b = b + ... I did that initially and almost all I found was either not free, or no icons as *.ico type. Then I finally found something, downloaded an icon; but I cannot remember which site it was. I so again wonder, could I make my own icon. I drew one with JB's Icon tool, but it does not look great. -- I tried again, and the site maybe was iconarchive.com (No. Not likely that site.)
