I have both a HDD and an SSD. I have created folders on my HDD that I intend to use for my Docs, Music, Photos and Videos. I know how to add them to libraries, but I don't know how to use the default user icons (the ones that scale up when icon sizes are increased and show a document, a musical note, a photo and a strip of film.) Is this at all possible? There are some alternatives in the shell32 file, but these aren't as good, some do not scale and some are nondescript. (one has both a photo AND a strip of film.)

Many Thanks.

As much as I love MS-DOS and windows 9k, those aren't quite the icons I was looking for! :) It is the icons that Win7 uses to show the default user folders, and which scale nicely.
