[maemo-developers] Maemo icons

I'm having the same problem with icon sizes, altho I'm using Pypackager.

It seems to me there are at least four different places where an
application icon appears, and in different sizes.

(0) In the Application Manager - Show installed applications (40?)
(1) In the Task Navigator (64?)
(2) In the Application Switcher - most recently launched (26?)
(3) In the Application Switcher - all running (40?)

There are also at least four different places where icons themselves are
placed when installed:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/usr/share/icons/hicolor/40x40/hildon/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/usr/share/pixmaps
The sizes of the 1st two are clear, but the others, not so much.
In addition when using Pypackager there's an enty area for an "Icon URL"
that lets you select a location in the file system. Can anyone explain
the mapping between where the icons appear when the files are placed. And
what sizes they are supposed to be? While I can get an icon to appear in
the Task Navigator it's not the large one that I want. I can't get
the right one to appear in the Application Manager either, and I get the
default cubes in both Application Switcher. And I've read the the Maemo
Tutorial and I can't figure it out from that. Thanks for any help.
