    Hello RBCC,

    What are you referring to? Do you mean changing the background in the Start Menu -> All Programs area?

    Please let us know. :)

    That is a virtual folder;

    Start Menu All Programs - Add or Delete Shortcuts


    There is no simple way to add a background photo.

    The easiest way is to use the old "Folder.jpg" trick. Copy a .jpg pic to the folder, rename it to "Folder.jpg" (it keeps it at the forefront) and you have the folder pic:

    I don't know for sure if this is what the OP is seeking to do but I just thought I'd toss it out, in case.

    My guess is you would have to use a third party skinning program to do that. You might check in the customization forum that resides right here in sevenforums for more information.

    Add a picture to the start menu? What is the goal you are trying to accomplish here, e.g. how does this help you?
