Wizard icons in managed package

I have a managed VSIP package and some custom wizards in my application. I
would like to have my companies icon show up when using the wizards to
create a new project.

The trouble seems to be the icon belongs in the package.dll, not the
packageUI.dll and I can't figure out how to add a win32 resource file to a
managed c# package. There is a command line option to the C# compiler to
handle this, but I'm using VS.NET as my build environment and the option is
either not there or I haven't found it yet.

Anyone know how todo this?

It's not there, you have to use the command line C# compiler, but why can't
you put the icons in the native packageUI.dll ?

If you wanna have just an icon for your new project item you can create an
icon in the same folder of the template.
For example if your template is New Project.csproj and you create an icon
New Project.ico in the same folder, the icon is showed in the new project
dialog.

Gaston
