Let's start!
1. Choose your base. I'm using one from Lord of War, one of my all-time favorite movies. Crop it to 100x100.
2. Duplicate your base twice. Set both duplicates to screen. Sharpen the top screen layer.
3. Hit layer >> new adjustment layer >> hue/saturation. These are your settings:
Master: Hue: 0 / Saturation: +36 / Lightness: 0
Yellows: Hue: 0 / Saturation: +32 / Lightness: 0
Cyans: Hue: 0 / Saturation: +51 /Lightness: 0
Blues: Hue: 0 / Saturation: +35 /Lightness: 0
Click OK.
And that's all there is to it
Of course, you can always go the extra mile and add your own touches:
Happy iconing
EDIT: Here's another example with a bigger picture.

with this one, I didn't duplicate it and set it to screen as it made it look too bright. experiment.
