Hi Malcolm. It depends a bit on how you installed it. Prebuilt package, or 
from a tar.gz source file.?

If from a prebuilt package, deb, rpm, for instance, look in /usr/share. There 
will probably be a directory for the app there. Also /usr/share/pixmaps 
sometimes has the icon. It is possible that the icon was not in the package. 
I have had that sometimes.

If installed from a .tar.gz, or .tar.bz2, and you DL'd it to your /home/user 
directory, and unpacked it in that directory, have a look in the unpacked 
directory. Sometimes it will be in one of the subdirectories, src, for 
instance. Or you may find it in /usr/local/share/css-ed.

If you installed from a prebuilt package, and the icon was missing, it is 
probably worth DL'ing the .tar.gz source file, unpacking it, and having a 
good look to see if the icon is included somewhere. Don't install the package 
again, just browse for the icon if it's there with Kmenuedit. 

All the best. Nigel.
