No problem!
Right click the menu button in the bottom left of your screen, and select Menu 
Editor.
As this is a browser, right click the Internet option in the Menu Editor 
option which has now come up.
Click New Item and, in the Dialog box, type in SeaMonkey or whatever you want 
to call it.
When you click OK, you will get a new area on the right, which has now filled 
in the name you chose and has a selection of different vacant spaces.
In Description, you can add one if you wish - e.g browser - but it isn't 
needed.
Nor is comment.
The important box is Command. There, you need to add the command to start 
SeaMonkey. It will probably be - 
/home/john/seamonkey1.1.2/seamonkey  or 
perhaps /home/john/seamonkey1.1.2/seamonkey/seamonkey   Basically, it is the 
full path to the actual seamonkey command you are using at the command line. 
Trial and error will find the correct path if you are not sure I expect.
That is all you need. (See below for the icon) Click Save and the menu will be 
updated - SeaMonkey will now reside under the menu > Internet.
The icon will be horrible though!  I would expect there is a SeaMonkey icon 
installed for you, but you will need to discover where that is. 
Probable locations are in /usr/share/seamonkey if that exists - perhaps in a 
folder called icons in there even?  Otherwise, I can install it fully here 
and find the icon if you can't locate it. It could be in the seamonkey 
directory in your /home , but /usr/share is the usual place.
To change the icon, simply use the Menu Editor as above, and click the square 
box which contains the rather boring file type icon. It will bring up a menu 
to locate the icon you wish to use. Click "Other Icons" and use the Browse 
button to go to where the SeaMonkey icon is (e.g /usr/share/seamonkey/icons).
Click the icon you want to use and then save. 
All done!
You can add icons to your desktop from the menu by dragging them to the 
desktop and choosing "Link here" from the menu which appears should you wish 
to.

Hope that is useful John - if you get stuck, feel free to shout!
