using large icons from icon packages
Saturday, May 29, 2004 by Vanilla Ice | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
i know Icon Packager has the icon size setting, which is the same as Display Properties > Appearence > Icons > Size i think, but it sucks. mostly cause the icons in the start menu for instance get huge and ugly. but also cause in Explorer, i use the Tiles view, which still only shows 48x48.
so is there a way to change the size of icons Tiles View shows?
and secondly, is there a way to only make the pinned start menu icons bigger, say to 48x48? there's a setting in Taskbar properties, but only gives you 16 or 32, nothing higher.

Let me know if this doesn't work and I will further try to find your answer but I'm almost certain that if you follow that procedure it will do what you want.

Derek, I going to use this thread to ask a similar icon question. What you said works for the left side. But can you change the icon size on the right side. Vanilla, I don't mean to hijack your thread.

As far as I have so far encountered that setting change can only be done from what shows up on the can only be done on the right side actually, I think you may have misread my post and thought it said left.

that does make the pinned start menu icons bigger, so that's good, but what i want most is to be able to use huge icons in Explorer, like 96x96.
so that create two problems: if i use Tiles view the icons are still the old, smaller size. and second, while i can use the Icons view and see my huge icons, then the icons in the start menu will be 96x96 as well, and that sure isn't good...
i think stardock should make an app that let's you customize the different Explorer views.
