Icons adds in dynamical cache, therefore - select your object and change icon exactly him - i do like this :)
But two problems - antialiasing not supported (get true color icons), and 16*16 px optimal size of icon (bigger icons become stretched - horrible view :) )

Try create icon like 256 colours and 16*16 px
And of course i'm sorry for my English :)

bigger icons are already in to-do-list

the icon support is not perfect, i know, if any delphi programmer can contribute, the function is getImageIndexForFile inside main.pas

i try add icons from .ico, .png, .bmp, .zip, .rar, .mim, .dll, .exe files, but result was "0 icons added"  :(

the number is for "new" icons. so if an icon is already available, it will say 0.

and what file use as a donor?

I FORGOT!
there's a bug in version 2.2a with icons and Windows98.
Maybe it is already fixed, you may try this unofficial build until 2.2b is out.

anything bigger than 16 does not work, its in the to-do list.
