It keeps telling me my format is incorrect. Size is 9.94kb, 72*72 pix, and PNG. What am I doing wrong for the icon

No idea. I used a 72x72 PNG. Maybe it's malformed somehow. Open it with something like XnView and save it, see if that works?
Also, I found a bug in the Maxthon browser. Apparently it's unable to save images. Causes an FC every time. However I can "View" the image in QuickPic, and "Move" the image out of the cache and into my download directory.

@Dark Reality, if you can send me your app icon at mm_support(AT)maxthon.com, we can try to take a look. Thanks

I tried uploading your icon and it worked fine. Please see attached image.
Hummm.. what browser are you using to upload your image? I wonder if it's a problem related to a particular browser. We need to dig into this to see why it worked for us, but not you..

As Maxthon's USA Ambassador, I'm very proud to see so much positive attention towards this new feature that the Devs have been working on!
Any questions about this, let me know, I'll help you as much as I can!

What other areas of the browser do you want to be customizable?
The ability to download images LOL. I mean, as is, can't do it without force closing. The images -- this happened three times -- came from Imgur by way of Reddit, if that matters (should it?).
Haha. No, really, that is a valid question and I thank you for asking it. Maybe an option to replace Maxthon's sync with Mozilla's... That would be awesome. Or the ability to not have a splash screen at all. Maybe have some options pre-configured, like privacy settings and user agent, maybe.

That's pretty ambitious...
BYB yes, an HTML READERS BROWSER (w/PGDN button built in) is ambitious. It's a commercial concept and I personally would shell out $10 for it, I find reading articles on (any) tablet browser that irritating. For a reader this is the equivalent of a speed bump -- constantly swiping, swiping. If you don't think we avid readers won't shell out just to be parolled from crudely trying to scroll our page down by one pixel-perfect screen with clumsy finger swiping -- a regrettable holdover from pre-tablet days, before screens found their sweet spot with the 10" tablet architecture -- then you don't know avid readers! The first developer who figures this out is in the bukoo, it's the achilles heel of mobile computing.
Navigation is everything and this one menu-bar button(s) -- not the sexiest, just the most fundamental -- will be core to any tablet owner who reads articles & blogs. Remember when eInk was first introduced? It wasn't sexy, it was something much more valuable to Kindle owners: comfortable.
Thanks for this customizable browser, what a great idea. It would be cool to have a holo theme available. Thanks again.

Have you considered that something other than a web browser may be what you're looking for? I mean, obviously you want to browse web sites, right? But you're not interacting with Web 2.0, e.g. Facebook, you're reading things. So, maybe you want a reader app?BYB yes, an HTML READERS BROWSER (w/PGDN button built in) is ambitious.

What about something like Pocket? Formerly known as Read it Later, you share web pages with it, and then read them later in its program, which used to cost a buck or two, but is now free. There's also Readability, also free. Do either of these support paging? I don't know. Pocket sounds like something I'd use twice a year. I got it for free when it was a paid app, and never installed it. But it -- both of these -- sound like what you're looking for. I skimmed the features, and I'm not sure they have paging, but maybe they're worth your time to check out.
P.S.: If one of those does what you want, you can donate that $10 you were offering either to the dev of the app, or XDA.
