I've done a couple that way.  It is a pretty cool feature..  Something
to keep in mind though, if you're a DateBk6 power-user you might like
to sometimes use small icons.  For example, using small icons in month
view allows you to display up to 20 icons per day (rather than 5 big
ones).  IconMgr DOES support this, tap'n'hold an icon to add a high or
low rez version of the icon.  This becomes a problem when importing
BMPs though, because by the time you convert the icon from 20x22
pixels down to the low rez 10x11, you lose so much resolution that the
icon may be unrecognizable..  Maybe you'll be okay if you just
carefully chose BMP pics with big distinctive detail and not many fine
details.....
