I'm probably missing something really basic, but I haven't been able to figure this out, yet.

I use GIMP for creating graphics. I've made an icon for a game that I've written. I know how to make an icon with a transparent background and store it as a .png file. I'd like to know how to set the "backlight" color of the icon when it appears in the Unity launcher.

I'm no expert on icons, but wouldn't it be a bit like webdesign where you
have two (slightly different) images and just set the other image to be
displayed on mouseover?
