In-Browser Icon Maker

[Garamonde]

Now after you save that, you're done aside from making the preview and icon. Icon Maker V3b isn't much different from V1, you can just pick between sprite icons, model icons and previews, and texture icons (click "Load Image" or Ctrl + L to import images. With the newest revision, you can now load or drag and drop your saved model renders in the Icon Maker and they'll keep their transparency!).

Icon + preview making tutorial for those who cannot use Icon Maker for whatever reason:

You can find the preview image here (the JPG'd version has now been replaced with the original .PNG version). In BRRES Viewer, go to Model, and uncheck Axes (or hit F3) to remove those colored lines, and center the model if you haven't already (you can turn the model around with your mouse, and zoom in and out with the mouse wheel too). Also under Model is an option called "Color". If you uncheck this, the model will become brighter (this does not apply to all models, but it works for Brawl models. Try disabling it if the model looks significantly darker than it should). Now take a print screen of the model at an angle you like and copy and paste it onto the preview image (making sure it fits in decently enough. If the model ends up covering any part of the white border at all, paste the border overtop so it will cover whatever is sticking out. I recommend saving the border separately). It's also okay to save the preview images as .JPG if you like. .PNG isn't completely necessary unless you're funny about JPGs like I am. The icon however must be .PNG, as .JPG won't be accepted, so just remember that if you decide to make it manually.

From my model ripping guide. I really need to post this explanation in the IM thread...
