My question was how can I put a different clip art or picture instead of those
plain icons.

The answer is "You Can't". Icons are a special type of graphics file (.ico)
designed to be used for that purpose and are stored in "libraries".

As Dave points out, you can _replace_ one Icon with another, but you
_cannot_ arbitrarily use another type of image.

If you're interested in designing custom icons, you might want to start @

Good Luck |:)

Thanks for responding!

I've tried that and I can change the icon. My question was how can I put a
different clip art or picture instead of those plain icons. There are many
to choose from but they're not exciting. It would be nice to be able to have
other little icons like for example : a clipart of a red folder or other
colors, not just plain yellow...
