the icon space is actually 32x32 and 64x64 - including the icon text.
so; in general cases; you can have a 32x22 icon and a 64x44 icon.
the extra 10 or 20 is actually the font height to draw the label.

i actually use 32x32 icons; but, only draw to the 22x22 area within
the top center of the bitmap. you can have something wider than 22.
22x22 and 44x44 are good guides tho.
