I build all my icons using the linked macro, that is part of the "Icons"
macro toolset.
On a related note, I usually use famfamfam silk icons that make beautiful
toolbar icons :
http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/They're gorgeous and the only requirement is to cite the author somewhere in
the readme or documentation.
They're gif so I convert them to 8-bit indexed color, use the info (value
under the pointer) to read the index value of the background, and use the
aforementionned macro with the given value as transparent color.
You can see my startup toolbar with such icons :
