Vista Folder Icons for Win7

Those screenshots really helped I was able to get that exact icon on to the taskbar in Vista.
In Vista's imageres.dll it is icon #123 and it is using the 16 x 16 pixel image from the 13 layer icon as you can see from my screenshots.



Now I will try to get that same affect on Windows 7 and let you know.

If the 16 x 16 image could be made at 256 x 256 it could be done by making a new icon(the ICO_MYCOMPUTER.ico) in explorer.exe.

Just making it bigger will distort it.

When you pin a folder in Windows 7 it use that icon.

What I am saying is if a larger image could be found approximately 256 x 256 pixels a new icon could be made and it would probably work, I tried making a new icon using that 16 x 16 pixel image(putting it on at 256 x 256 pixel background) but it was too small and didn't show up and if you enlarge that 16 x 16 pixel image to make it 256 x 256 pixels it distorts the image and doesn't look right.

Look at the image I have an arrow pointing to that image needs to be larger so a decent icon could be made.

Tell me how you get the user folder pinned to the taskbar in Windows 7, when I try it I get an Explorer icon as shown in the screenshot below.

I don't think those will help sorry.

What I need is a bigger image of this it may be hard to see.
