By the way, all the icons are automatically rounded, so there's no real need to do it yourself.
Also, icons are now 117x.

hmm, you should design your iphone icon in 512x512 and scale them down. the app store needs the 512 graphic files.

When you submit one of these icons do you trim the image but leave the corners 90 degrees and then let apple crop the black off it?
