    Not sure on 98 but should be somewhat the same as XP what I do all the time I will use google to search images say skull and crossbones you will get a bunch of pages of them I will pick out some and save them somethimes they are Jpeg some are Gif files I use Adobe 7 to open and then save a copy of it as a bitmap that works as a Icon .A Gif file I use Adobe Elements 4 to convert to bitmap.I sure there are outher programs ouy there to make the flie converison
