Hello Jive,
# this is a bit old but should still work
# might have to tweak the wx stuff
# because of the namespace change. ex. wxImage -> wx.Image
# image size must be 32h 32w
image = wxImage(file, wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG)
image = image.ConvertToBitmap()

icon = wxEmptyIcon()
icon.CopyFromBitmap(image)

frame.SetIcon(icon)

Be sure to look thru the demo it is very informative and is really the
best documention.
As they say use the source Luke.
