The warning is correct (you asked for -Wconversion after all). The
type of the expression (iconSize.width * 0.75) is double, and you are
converting it to a float by passing it to NSMakeSize.

-Wconversion largely exists to catch problems when going from K&R C
(where it was quite tricky to pass a 'float' argument) to ANSI/ISO C ,
and as such doesn't have much use in other situations.

You can either turn off the warning or use this instead:
NSSize warningIconSize = {iconSize.width * 0.75, iconSize.height * 0.75};
