you should pack the game with all the graphics it uses and the rgss10xx.dll. That way it should work

The fastest (clumbsiest) way?
Quite literally copy your 'Audio' and 'Graphics' folders where your RTP is, and paste both into your Game Projec'ts folder. The downside is you would have a download file the size of your whole RTP.

this is what happens
i have the game saved in my RPGXP folder
then i go on the program and do File/compress game data
then when thats done the icon comes in my desktop were i placed it then
i extract that then drag the audio and Graphics folder

Wherever you have your game folder where you are working on it... Let's say C:\MyGameFolder You should have within it, three folders: Data, Graphics and Audio.
Now those Audio and Graphics folders are probably empty. You did not add any NEW graphics but are just using the RTP. When you compile a game, any graphics or audio gets saved in that compiled game file you've been making.
Copy your graphics and audio into your project FIRST... before you compile it. Then you can send it as that sunburst icon file. No extracting required, other than making sure you have all the graphics compiled in the file.
.... It'll be big. Be smaller if you know exactly which graphics to copy over to your project. Takes time to get the hang of it. Just practice.

It's 182kb and all the folders are empty.
It also doesn't have the rgss.dll file in it.
It's also a .rar files and not the self-extracting .exe RMXP makes.
So basically you did 0 of the steps required o_o/
