Honda Fit Icon for Windows and Mac

Finally got around to making something I've wanted for a few days since using my USB flash drive and wanting a half-way decent Fit icon for my drive and folders. Hopefully, the following link works:
Honda Fit.ico

Some notes:
* This contains 256, 48, 32, and 16-pixel icons
* All icons are 32-bit True Color with transparency -- no 256 colors (does anyone still use a 256-color display?)
* Each icon is optimized for its size and the 16 pixel one reverts to a Honda H logo I made since the Fit looks like a splat at this size
* The 256 icon is uncompressed so it doesn't freak out XP, but I haven't tried it on XP yet
* Right-click, Properties, Customize to set
* For your USB flash drive (under Windows), you can make an AutoRun.inf with the following:
[AutoRun]
Icon=Honda Fit.ico
Label=Honda Fit
(and stick the icon file in the root, too)

Edit: Added below was Honda Fit.icns Mac icon
Honda Fit.icns

I do have a Mac, too, but not long enough to know how to make icons for it. Vista is actually pretty good if you turn off a lot of the trash that's been added to "help" you, but actually drives you nuts. I also run Ubuntu and Solaris. They all have their advantages and disadvantages.

Hey, try this. I just exported the .ico file to a Mac .icns file. I don't know how to use it though. Maybe you can let me know if the file below works and how to use it

Honda Fit.icns

Vista is for fast computers (very fast). I will admit that out of the box, it is possessed.

seems like microsoft is sending out operating systems with viruses pre installed for you so you dont have to search the www to find them.

Well... OK. But only because Blue Sensation Pearl was my 2nd choice! This is kinda quick and dirty, and I hope I got it close never having actually seen the color in the flesh.
