GoDiagram Win Reference
CreateIcon(ResourceManager,String) Method
Example 

Provides the ResourceManager holding an Image resource named by iconname. If this parameter is null, GoImage.DefaultResourceManager is used instead.

The name of the Image resource in the ResourceManager given by res, or else a file name if no resource manager can be used (i.e., when both res is null and GoImage.DefaultResourceManager is null).

If the value is an empty string, the Image will be blank; you can set Image.GoImage.Name to show or change the image displayed by the GoImage that is the Image.

If the value is null, the Icon is not a GoImage but a GoDrawing; you can then set the Figure to change the shape shown as the icon.

Create and initialize a GoImage or a GoDrawing to act as the node's icon.

Return Value

Example
If you override this method, you may want the definition to do some of the things that the standard definition does:
protected virtual GoObject CreateIcon(ResourceManager res, String iconname) {
  if (iconname != null) {
    GoImage img = new GoImage();
    if (res != null)
      img.ResourceManager = res;
    img.Name = iconname;
    img.Selectable = false;
    img.Resizable = false;
    return img;
  } else {
    GoDrawing rect = new GoDrawing(GoFigure.Rectangle);
    rect.Selectable = false;
    rect.Resizable = false;
    rect.Size = new SizeF(40, 40);
    return rect;
  }
}
