Is there a way to make the arrows on desktop shortcuts smaller as you could do in previous versions?

Thanks, but I don't want to get rid of them, just make them smaller.

Or is this another of those instances where microsoft has decided they need to be the ultimate arbiters of what our desktops should look like.

I thought everything was going to be an object in Win7 (XP too) and thus customizable.
