You could create a BMP file and then use a BMP to ICO converter.
Here is a webpage that does the conversion for you:

filename you want.
I think the BMP needs to be a certain mode (e.g. 24bit?) before it can convert
to ICO.

The bug-tracker serves it's purpose, but you can't expect everyone to be
reading it over before making any comment about GIMP. Maybe there are GIMP
users who would love everyone to drop Photoshop (or whatever) and use GIMP. If
so, they will have to deal with more of this. Not everyone can spend
Yea, that's the whole idea.
Layer effects/styles save you from having to re-create your effects all the the

If you save them as Indexed PNG's and reduce the
