I'm quite sure they will-- however, at least in OSX, the smaller icons
used elsewhere on the desktop (e.g. in the Finder) can and should be
drawn separately, to use a more "old-fashioned" Mac icon appearance.  As
I understand it, the large photorealistic icons are only used on the OSX
dock bar...?

Cheeri,
