So I just recently switched from a PC to a mac. Some may boo, go ahead. Now I know that in the OS X environment, .exe files are not the way to run programs. Fine by me so long as I can still play my favorite games.

My question is really just a simple one.
I have the launcher.jar saved to my desktop on my new MBP however, the icon is lackluster (standard java icon for Mac OS X). Is there a way I can change the icon for the launcher specifically? Or is there a way the FTB team could include this in the code? I only ask because I really do like the FTB icon and honestly, I like it when I can identify files based on the icon, especially for games.
