I decided to change my Boot Camp drive so that I can more easily distinguish it from my main hard drive, and started googling for boot camp drive icons, figuring someone must have already created one. I found a few, but none were of sufficiently high quality for my tastes (low resolution Windows logos were used in most cases), so I decided to make my own. This was a surprisingly simple task, thanks to Pixelmator. I grabbed the 512x512 image from the default hard drive icon file, and opened it as a TIFF in Pixelmator. I then found a decent sized Boot Camp windows icon (the grayscale one) inside the Boot Camp Assistant application, and pasted that onto the TIFF in Pixelmator. After a bit of perspective fiddling, I came up with the finished result, and have now posted it for all to see and download. Included in this ZIP are the Pixelmator source file, a 512x512 exported TIFF of the Pixelmator image, a ICNS resource file generated using Icon Composer, and a folder with the icon set as it's image (to allow for easy copying and pasting to the Windows volume).
