Now that the iPhone icons wiggle and let you customize your home screen, anyone know of any sites that create icons when you add it to the home screen? I think QBN needs one.
The only one I've found so far is SportsTap - http://sportstap.mobi/

do none of these do it? I haven't tried yet, so I have no clue.

Yeah, I'm trying them now...most don't. What I mean is when I go to add SportsTap to my Home Screen a nice custom icon is replaced with the screen shot of web content. I'm sure sites will catch on, but I was surprised SportsTap had one already.

now you've got me wondering what it is that creates that icon. I'm assuming it's similar to a favicon possibly?

haha, well, after a little bit of a source view it appears to be so:
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="http://sportstap.mobi/images/favicon.png" />

Here's how to do it...
1. Create a 57x57 PNG.
2. Name it "apple-touch-icon.png"
3. Throw it in the root folder of your website. (Not the root of your server, the root of your web documents.)More here (http://vjarmy.com/archives/2008... if you need it.
