I have tried to create new icons for my desktop without the backgrounds and it does not work for me. Do you have a Mac tutorial to follow.
Thanks and MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thanks everyone. I was creating them in Photoshop and saving as a jpg or gif (don't remember, it's been a while). but they didn't work.
Everyone ready for a new year? |

Well as ready as I ever will be 
Icons should be saved as .ico files.
Photoshop doesn't have native support for it but there was a link posted on these forums to a website with a plugin to allow you to save images as icons.
Just do a simple search for something like 'icon plugin'.
