LJ's Icon policy is basically anything that is maximum 100X100 pixels. You can basically use any image file type (.gif, .jpg, .png, etc.). Most of mine are .png because you get better graphics quality at that small size that way, but I won't bog you down with technical details of making an Icon. Traditionally and as a courtesy, you can take icons from other LJ users, but sometimes they want to be credited or they simply don't want to share their icons, so know what you are allowed to take and what you are not allowed to take. You can find whole communities devoted to sharing free icons right here on LJ, and many fan communities have posters who will submit entries with icons to share with others. For the sake of my tutorial here, right click on this image and save it to your harddrive (remember where you put it because you are going to need it again in a second):
