Now add the following codes before/after the text inside "desktop.ini". 5. SAVE 6. Refresh(F5). If nothing change, try to Reopen the folder. FYI: The codes that I give should show you "crystal.jpg"(default winxp desktop background pics. Now, to make more reflect to what you want. I mean the picture that you like. You can edit the path at the last line into your path of your picture. Paste the path, right after "iconarea_image=".

If the pic are in the same folder with "desktop.ini", the path can be "\(pic filename)" without quote. Final one, to restore the folder icon into the default icon, delete the following codes inside the "desktop.ini" [SIZE=6][COLOR=Red][FONT=Georgia][COLOR=Green]video tutorial : [/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]:yes::yes:;):yes: [SIZE=6][COLOR=Red] [/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
