    How do I change icons in Firefox Bookmarks?

    Is there a way of changing the folder icon that's used in the Bookmarks menu? I'm referring to the yellow folder which is the standard folder icon in Windows XP, which I use.
    I'm doing a little custom work on the computer's appearance and I've changed the folders inside XP, but the Bookmark folders are still the same. I have found some info on how to change the icons for the various bookmarks, but I want to change the folders I've assigned them to as well.

    This little blog post here tells you how to do it. May seem a bit complicated at first glance, but it really isn't that difficult.

    Hello Owen, and thanks for that link. I had read that before, but I think I've found a simpler solution with this Firefox add-on.

    I've tried it only once but that was successful.
    Sorry I didn't post earlier but I'm renovating the computer. I'll be back regularly soon.

    That's certainly a better way. Good find!
