I've been getting alot of emails about my screenshots and how I put those backgrounds, left-portion link box thing, and the music that plays upon opening. So... I'm just going to tell you all right here, since it it extremely simple. First of all if you have XP then too bad, you can't do it. I know for a fact that 2000 and ME work but I don't know if the older ones work as well.
To add a background, left click in a blank spot in the folder, select "customize this folder", check the "add background box" then click next and follow the on screen directions. Simple eh?
To add the links and stuff on the left portion side, do the same thing but select "add folder comment". And instead of putting in a comment, write up some HTML and it'll appear there on the left side. If you don't know HTML, then... ask someone or something.
As for the music, just put a "embed src" tag that links to a mp3 or midi file. It could even be a movie file if you like!!! But beware that this will make opening your folder take longer. If you don't want the player to show up in the left side thing, then set the width and height parameters to 0.
Good Luck and enjoy!!!
