Ok nerd alert.... When you use a plugin at setup then of course the icons get copied from the plugin www/images folder to the project/images folder, but when you create a plugin without setup then of course you manually have to place the icons in the project/images....
Sometimes i am so into deep thinking that i forget the simple causes. Only thing that is still not working is when i use the "related" parameter in the customadmin/plugin.xml that the page loads the first item of the menu and not show the description and icons. I have named the related parameter to the packages/types cfc's. It now works with the description and icon parameters, but if i can make it simple, why not. Thanks.
