Couldn't you use the same technique to turn them into .ico-s as in BioRUST.com :: Tutorials >> Creating & Using Favicons?

Hope I am not too late to help.

Go here nitewalker:

IcoFX - The Free Icon Editor

icofx is an icon editing freeware app. Beautiful features, import any image and turn it into XP or Vista icons or start from scratch. It's a no brainer, That's why I can use it hope it helps

Oh yea. It supports Macs too.
