If you want to try out or replace Emacs icons with something else, it is 
easier to just copy png icons to etc/images, or set image-load-path to a 
directory with png icons (png seems to be the most used format for Gnome and 
KDE), than to first convert them to xpm.  Also, I think xpm had some issues 
with transparency, but that may have been solved now.
