This article describes how to convert a bitmap to an icon.

It looks very similiar to your one:

using (Cbitmap = new Bitmap(sourceImage.Text))
{
    Cbitmap.MakeTransparent(Color.White);
    System.IntPtr icH = Cbitmap.GetHicon();
    Icon ico = Icon.FromHandle(icH);
}
using (System.IO.FileStream f = new System.IO.FileStream(destinationFldr.Text + "\\image.ico", System.IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate))
{
    ico.Save(f);
}

Try it out.

EDITED: Added the using statements.
