How can I associate an icon with a custom Splunk application?
As of 6.0, the main app icon goes here (note the _2x version to support higher pixel density displays, such as apple's retina):
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appIcon.png 36x36px
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appIcon_2x.png 72x72px
This icon is displayed in the app menu:
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appIconAlt.png 36x36px
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appIconAlt_2x.png 72x72px
You can -optionally- place an app logo in the same path:
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appLogo.png 160x40
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/static/appLogo_2x.png 320x80
For backwards compatibility with 5.x, you'll also want to follow lmurphey's instructions in his answer.

For 5.x, put a 36x36 file in the following path:
<app_name>/appserver/static/appIcon.png
For 6.x, you'll also need to follow callan's recommendation in his answer.
For more information, see the list of files recommended for apps.
The docs have been updated. See http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/AdvancedDev/AddConfigurations#Add_app_icon_images
@BP9906: I just opened a defect ticket with the docs team to get this corrected.
Why doesnt the above answer not match the docs? The above works, the docs do not for Splunk v6. 🙂
