sorry but you're wrong. Photoshop saves the file's data into datafork
and preview icon into resource. The resource is in PICT format. I
checked the latest version of Photoshop (CS) and it's still the same.
Good catch. I used the Get Info pane in Finder.app to paste a random
image onto a file created from Terminal (i.e. no pre-existing resource
fork) and an 'icns' resource was added to it. So it's not even just
Photoshop doing this. Copying the file in a way that preserves
resource forks should therefore also preserve any custom icon applied
to the file.
