AppleScript custom ICON not showing when extracted via zip

Hi,


This is my first time posting so please bear with me. I recently created an applescript used to automatically load insecure content when launching chrome browser and I was successful. Since this is a script for chrome, I changed it's icon and modified it to look like chrome browser. However, when I tried to zip the script and send that link to my friend, when she extracted the file, it doesn't show the file with the chrome logo but just the ordinary applescript logo. Can you tell me on how can we still extract the applescript with the icon still in it? Thanks!

PowerBook, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
