Actually, there was a posting in this list, if I remember correctly.

There is already an icon in the "pc" directory.  It can be converted to
png by the "convert" program from ImageMagick.

I would do it if I was sure that the page won't go away.  I don't have
time to fix the site when the links become broken.

Actually, I think that the discussion about icons would be more useful
elsewhere.  If you check the GNOME 2.1 page
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.1/ you will see that Nautilus now uses icon
themes, which are meant to be shared across desktops.  Those who work on
the actual themes are probably interested in icons for popular programs.
