I too have an issue with menu icon sizes in 12.10, which wasn't
present in earlier versions (11.10 & 12.04).

I have a custom desktop entry in: /usr/local/share/applications/Eclipse.desktop
------------------------------------------------------------
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Eclipse
Exec=eclipse
Comment=
Icon=/home/xxxxxxxx/eclipse/icon.xpm
NoDisplay=false
Categories=Development
Type=Application
------------------------------------------------------------

The icon file is in /home/xxxxxxxx/eclipse/icon.xpm
------------------------------------------------------------
/* XPM */
static char * eclipse_256_xpm[] = {
"256 256 15983 3",
"   	c None",
".  	c #281140",
"+  	c #27113F",
"@  	c #26103E",
"#  	c #26103D",

..etc..
------------------------------------------------------------


This icon shows up in  Menu -> Programming as 256x256, where previous
versions scaled the image to appropriate size.  Portion of screenshot
is attached.

Hope this helps.
