profoundwhispers Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 After I substituted the normal windows folder icon with GANT's, I'm having ugly folder thumbnails in My Music and My Pictures folders. What can I do to fix that? Thank you. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/129047-problem-with-folder-thumbnails/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

icecaveman Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 the icon you selected does not support so large icons as thumbnails are, they have to be around 72x72 if I remember correctly.

icexswipe Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 thanks guys but the pictures still stick out. The whole thing just scales down, but the pictures are still larger than the folder. oh well, looks a little better when using small thumbnails.
