Question about Civilopedia icons Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

I have a problem. I've added a unit called Combat Mecha sucessfully, but I don't understand how to get its Civilopedia icon to work. In the attached image, you'll notice that the icon is taken from the units_32.pcx file. Below that is the icon I want to use, which I just pasted on top of the screenshot.

The icons are in place in the CivilizationIII\Art\Civilopedia\Icons\units folder.

I've noticed almost all of the files there have numbers in front. What do they stand for? Can I use a number for my icon so that it's displayed in the game?

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

m_m_x: Yes, it's fully animated and rendered from a 3D model, but I had absolutely no part in creating it. I got it either from Apolyton or CivFanatics, in a thread called "4 hi-tech units". I do plan on publishing my mod when it's finished though, I think I've done some very neat things

Gramphos: Thanks a bunch, I'll investigate that =)

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Thanks Gramphos, I used the existing lines of code as a template for the new icons, so I think it worked out fine.
