Change the look of your folders by adding pictures to them

By Mitz

This is one of my favourite tweaks to add to my computer when I am setting it up. Not only does this make my folders look great, but it also makes them easy to find. It is always hard to distinguish between folders when there are so many of them and they all look the same.

Here's how to add a picture to your folder

1. Simply right click on any folder and choose properties (You can only change folders that you have created. For example you can not change My Pictures,)
2. A dialog box will appear
3. Choose the Customize Tab
4. Then press on Choose Picture and browse for the picture you want to use
5. Then press apply and then OK
6. That's it.. Your picture will be on the folder.
