If I have a round stone, can I set it to look more square? If so how? Thanks!!

Yup!
You can do a square halo or dover style fishtail setting...
I had replied to a similar thread with pics, let me go find the link...

more prominent prongs in the 4 corners can make it look more square- the antique style prongs... I am blanking on the name

Great pictures...very helpful.

Icekid - your ring is my favorite!! When you get tired of it...send it my way ;-)

Does this trick work with ovals as well?

Setting an oval EastWest almost automatically makes it seem less round.
