Hey y'all. I would appreciate any help on this, being that I'm particularly new to all of this GUI customization.
I've noticed with alot of screenshots with new skins and such that there's an extensive amount of icon changing. Things in the Start Menu, control panel, folders; how do you do that? The only way I know of changing an icon is going through the right-click->properties method. Is there a program to do this with?
There's a program Stardock released called Icon Packager, it's flawless and defintley worth its small price tag.
Microangelo On Display is WONDERFUL for changing individual icons and default icons (like folders, my computer, my documents etc) I use a cracked version :staffs here: because it only has a 30 day trial. PM me for details. 
iconphile: http://www.virtualplastic.net/scrow/iphile.html simple and free. 
or reshack shell32.dll. that should cover most of the icons.
