first we need a concept image for icon::

then a screen mask - white is the area that the screen below icon shows through ::

then the icon image - as i get it the mask is AND-ed to screen and then the image is XOR-ed on top of the mask . . . ::

then we need to construct a 16 color icon file (basicly it can be done with java(script) or VBA or whatever you have - to read/write binary files) ::

((DOS programs in DOSBox))

run in cmd shell ::

and here you go

with 5x zoom in added to contrast back ground XOR-ing with (at this time) the white foreground
