I like to prettify applets and droplets by pasting icons on the info window but I don't know how to get rid of the white background, so they don't merge nicely into the Dock etc.

What's the trick, oh graphicologists ?
An icon editor. You need to edit the mask, which AFAIK the Finder won't do, even if you paste alpha channel images or shaped selections. It will preserve the mask if you paste directly from one icon to another.
