Hi Brett, I was using your Automator Workflow ever since you published it. Today, however, I was so annoyed by it that I decided to do some adjustments. My main problem is/was that the workflow I was using doesn't process multiple apps and that it uses the default icon name file, which is a problem since Google Chrome.app and Chromium.app use app.icns as their icon file name. So this script would overwrite existing icons. I also made this a Service.

To share with you and your readers:

Have a great day,
Andreas

Very useful, thanks!

Is there any way to make Automator pop up a window asking which icon size you'd like to convert, you type in 128, 512, or whatever and it saves that size as a .png to the Desktop?

You can use a "Request Text" action and let the user type in a number to pass on, but you can't do a popup or anything with the built-in actions.
