    Changine the Folder Icon ?


    Hi,

    I have a picture saved in IrfanView.

    I would like to place it on a Folder

    I looked in all the icons in the Icon Folder that MS provides where it asks you to Customize the Folder.
    Didn't find any suitable, but did find one that I copied to IrfanView.

    Could someone please walk me thru on how I do this, exactly, please with the save pix I haver in IrfanView?

    Not too great with this stuff.

    Thanks,
    Bob

    If you can move the picture inside of the folder you want the picture to be the icon for, you could set it up so that it shows thumbnails and then choose that picture.
