[SOLVED] Custom icons not working

[ssm360]

Hi every one,
this is my first post in this forum, and I and a newbie when it comes to hardy.

I ran a search about this but could not find anything about it, so not sure if this has been posted before, if it has could someone give me the link plz.

I tried 2 install a custom icon pack but they don't seem to work with my desktop theme, no matter what I do,
so I went looking again and found some PNG files, but when adding them I can only get one folder to change its icon, how can I get every folder 2 change there icons.

Any help is appreciated thanks.

Download custom icon packs from http://gnome-look.org/
The file should be .tar.bz2 or .tar.gz
Easiest way is to extract the file (Right click and select extract), and copy it to ~/.icons folder (.icons is a hidden folder in your Home folder. Press Ctrl+H at your home folder to make it visible)
After you copy it to ~/.icons, goto System->Preferences->Appearance, click Customize button and Icons tab and select it from there.
