Does anyone know of any good resources for learning how to insert custom Genre icons into iTunes 10? I find a myriad of sites and even applications to do this in OSX, but none for Windows. Also, on a side note, does anyone know of any good album art screensavers, like the one that comes standard in OSX, for Windows 7?

Give this a read and see if it helps out any:
Change the genre of a song / album in iTunes - Create custom / combined genres

Instead of changing / renaming the genre of one track at a time, here's how to change the genre of a complete album:

Choose to List View inside iTunes (see above)
Sort your music by Album by clicking on the Album column - if it is hidden, right-click on any other column and choose "Album" from the context menu.
Now locate the album you want to rename, by scrolling to it, or filtering it (type album name in the search field in the top right corner of iTunnes' main window).
Click on the first track of the album
Hold the Shift key (on both Mac or Windows)
With the key still held down, click on the last track of the album
With all songs now selected, right-click on any of them and choose "Get Info"
To avoid accidental renames of several items at once, iTunes will ask "Are you sure you want to edit information for multiple items?" - Click "Yes", and iTunes will display the Information dialog for the songs/tracks you selected.
In the Info tab, type a new genre in the "Genre" text field
Click "OK", and iTunes will take a few seconds to apply the new genre to all the tracks you had selected.
If your iPods are set to synchronize music with iTunes, you will also see your custom genres in the iPod.
