Open your Hypercard stack in ResEdit. Choose NEW from the file menu
and ICON from the popup menu. Then choose NEW again from the file
menu. You'll get a blank window in which you can draw your icon.
Close and save the icon you draw and repeat the NEW choice for as many
icons as you want to draw. When you're done, quit Resedit, saving
everything. Then open the same stack in Hypercard. When you choose an
icon for one of your buttons, you'll see the icons you drew appear (as
if by magic) in the icon window.

You can COPY (in the EDIT menu) little Bitmap rectangles from Macpaint
or Hypercard and paste them into the icon editing windows in Resedit.
On a 1 meg machine, Resedit and Macpaint will fit in a switcher set,
but Resedit and Hypercard will not fit in the same set :-(.
