[Casper] Icon file to use in Self Service app?

I would use the .icns file as described by several others.     I however
don't bother transferring it to a PNG.  The only difference I've noticed
is that non mac browsers don 't see it when you load your policies page
because they can't read .icns files.    Not really a bid deal since self
service is a mac only thing and your macs will all see the file just
fine.   And they show up normally in safari.

   Then it's just control click on the app show package contents go to
the resources folder and copy the icns file.  Upload that.  You are
done.

Another option is to:
show package contents:browse to the .icns file
Copy (cmd + c) the icns file
Open Preview
cmd+N to paste from the clipboard
Save as to a png

Hi Rich,

Often you can take the ICNS file right out of the application itself.

*	Right click on the .app itself and choose to show package
contents 
*	Browse to Contents -> Resources 
*	Drag the desired ICNS file out to your desktop


I ran into an app the other day that I couldn't find it for,
SeaMonkey...strange.

Where can I find the icon resource to copy into the Self Service app so
that I get a nice, big, clear icon of the app I am making a self service
install for? Right now I am using Grab to make a screen shot of the icon
- but it is pixelated. Do you have a better way? 

Tedd at JAMF showed me once but I didn't jot it down.
