    This is kinda cool. It will add a background image to any folder.

    Heres what you do:
    Open up notepad or wordpad or whatever. Paste this code:
    Theres only 2 things you need to edit.
    The picture name. This is the name of the picture you want as the background. No specific extension is required as far as I know.
    The text color. This is done in hexadecimal. If you have a dark background, use "0xFFFFFF" and if you have a light background use "0x000000". Its important that you have "0x" in front of the code or it will not work.

    Now just upload the desktop.ini file AND the picture file to the desired folder (its better if you hide them (right click > properties > "Hidden")) and refresh.

    Works on flashdrives (pendrive, usb drive, whatever floats your boat) too. I put my name on mine in between icons so people will know its mine :D

    Heres what I did to one of my music folders:

    Kinda a neat trick :D I just wish there was a way to make it fixed instead of scrolling with the window.
