Dock icon suggestion

Does anyone know if and where I could find a dock icon that looks like the iChat icon but with the msn butterfly in the place of the aim yellow guy?

No one has made this icon. I'm a little busy myself. But see if any of these tickle your fancy.

Thanx. I am actually using the first one. I was just wondering if there was one floating around that i had not seen. I have tried myself, but can never get the transparency to work as well as most of these dock icons.

Let me know if you do (IM me) and I'll give you that aqua butterfly I made. It will fit better with the bubble.

Photoshop CS. Sometimes I use Illustrator alongside Photoshop, but that is rare.

What i've done for now is gone into the adium app package, into service icons and copied the largest butterfly icon. I set that one as my icon.
On another note, if anyone is iterested, I have put together a set of msn status icons. a greenish one for online, a red one for away, a yellow one for idle, one with a phone next to it for mobile, and a white one for offline. They are not the same representation as in MSN, but it matches the adium colours and I like it. If anyone wants a copy, you can email me.

That would be my butterfly (you can use it of corse, just don't post it).

no no, i guess i was not clear. I used YOUR butterfly as a dock icon for now. But i went on my brothers pc, he went into messenger and copied the msn messenger guys (green, red, yello, mobile, white) for me. and i copied the adium status icons from inside adium, replacing the gems with msn guys (not buttlerflys). The only time i am using YOUR butterfly is as a dock icon. I would not post something like that, all i did was copy a picture. i didnt actually do any work. And i would definitly not take creadit for it.
(PS. good job on the butterfly.)
