How to put a Google icon on my desktop?
Welcome to the forum gozapper.
This should help: http://rhinoweb.us/howtocreateinternetshortcut.htm
Then for icons, maybe here: http://findicons.com/search/google
To prevent Opera from opening two tabs, add the "-activetab" line:
For FF, I'm guessing SeaMonkey too- leave it out.

gozapper,
You always have to report which puppy you use.
In this case it might be important to know which windows manager you use.
The answer may be different.

Time savers:
Find packages in a snap and install using Puppy Package Manager (Menu).

How I did it.
The way I put a book mark on the desktop...
I created an HTML (text) file and put it on the desktop. It can be named anything like MyLocation.html.
I placed the following HTML redirect code into the file.
<HEAD>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html">
</HEAD>
Change the URL to where you want to go, your bookmark.
The content="0; may be changed to the number of seconds you want the browser to wait before redirecting.
I changed the icon to something I liked and it worked fine for me.
I don't know how elegant this is, but it works.
