Custom Project Nature image [message #901228]

I have my own custom project and I have define my own project nature and
I want to add an icon to the project.

I added the following extension to plugin.xml:

<extension
      point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.projectNatureImages">
   <image
         icon="icons/myICON.ico"
         id="ui.projectnatureimage"
         natureId="customType.projectNature">
   </image>
</extension>

and it seems to work since the icon is correctly shown for my custom projects
but for some reason behind my icon on the left corner you can see whatever picture
I try to use a small red square(maybe showing that an icon is missing?).

Any idea why is this happening?

I am attaching a screenshot showing the problem:

It looks like there's a decorator image that's not being found. Are there any messages in your log?

I had no messages in the log and I didn't declare any decorators but I solved
the problem by declaring my own Custom Decorator and in the decorateImage method
I return the image I want without any decorator.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
