I am trying to fill in some of the missing blocks in the wiki but I am not sure exactly how to get the icon for the blocks (e.g. stone) like that you see in your inventory. Any help in how one finds those images would be much appreciated.

From my experience:
The inventory image is simply captured by ensuring that your GUI is scaled to the correct size (basically as long as it doesn't look tiny or huge), having the item visible in your inventory, and then pressing F2, which will capture a screenshot (including the GUI). Then find the minecraft screenshots folder, and open the image with an image editor (It really only needs to support adding Transparency and cropping), and then crop the image so that it's only the item (should be a standard size like 32x32). Then flood-fill the background with transparency.
Note that if you aren't capable of transparency, it's not too much of a big deal, someone else will re-up your image with transparency added.

It's my understanding that high-quality images without a background can be acquired via the ExtraBees ItemRenderer while in-game. I'm not sure exactly how this works, as whenever I've tried to use the ItemRenderer (as well as numerous other things from ExtraBees :/) my game crashes, so I can't tell you more than that.
