Sorry for the confusion: I was talking about drag events generated by *external* applications such as Firefox (dragging an image from Firefox onto my application) or the Finder. So I think it is off course the external application which is responsible for setting the proper drag "accept" icon, once my application decides to accept the drag, right?

Anyway, I just figured out that when dragging a photo from iPhoto onto my application I *do* get this "green bubble with + and little arrow" icon!

I wonder however what icon I will get when drag'n'dropping within my own application, will test this later on.

Thanks,
  Oliver
