How to customize my Pen Drive to look good on the inside?

Question

Well I have a pendrive (512 MB), don't know what the company is, bought it off Amazon so no software came with it. I love my pen drive but the problem is that the folders I put in it look very plain. I don't know how to add that personal touch that I have on my PC. I've seen people put awesome backgrounds on their pendrives. Does anyone know how, or if there is any software available that will allow me to customize my pen drive, like changing the icons and stuff. Thanks in advance.

To add wallpaper to a folder in XP, open the folder, choose Tools, Folder Options, and click the View tab. Under 'Advanced settings', select Show hidden files and folders (you may need to double-click Hidden files and folders first). Uncheck Hide protected operating system files (Recommended) and click Yes when you see the warning. Click OK, and double-click the file named desktop.ini to open it in your text editor (you may not see the .ini extension). If you can't find a desktop.ini file, launch Notepad or your preferred text editor.

In your text editor, type [{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}] (this line contains no capital letter Os, only zeroes) on the first line, and press Enter. Type IconArea_Image= and the path to your .bmp, .gif, or .jpg image file--for example, 'IconArea_Image=C:\My Documents\My Pictures\Picture Name.jpg' or just 'Picture Name.jpg' for removable drives and pen drives. Then press Enter.

If you want to change the color of the Icon text do the following: To leave the icon text black, do nothing.

For white, type IconArea_Text=0x00FFFFFF (make sure that the x is lowercase) and press Enter. For red text, replace the code that follows the equal sign with 0x000000FF; to make the text yellow, type 0x0000FFFF; for blue text, use 0x00FF0000; and to show gray text, enter 0x00808080. These codes dentify values in a 24-bit color scheme that specifies how much blue, green, and red to mix together: 0x00bbggrr (with values ranging from 0 in decimal or 00 in hexadecimal to 255 in decimal or FF in hexadecimal). If you're editing the folder's existing desktop.ini file, save the file and close your text editor. If you created the file from scratch, save it with the name "desktop.ini" in the folder that will house the background picture; use quotation marks to keep Notepad from adding its default .txt extension.

Now give the folder the System attribute. Put the folder window destined for the background picture in front. Press Backspace to move up a level, click Start, Run, type attrib +s followed by a space, and drag the icon for your desired folder to the text box of the Run dialog box. It should now read something like 'attrib +s C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Documents\My Folder' (your path and folder name may differ, of course). Click OK. The next time you open the folder, you'll see your new wallpaper inside (see FIGURE 3). If you don't want to see the desktop.ini file, right-click it and choose Properties. Under the General tab, check Hidden and click OK. Then click Tools, Folder Options, View, and deselect the option to show hidden files and folders. While the Folder Options box is open, recheck Hide protected operating system files if you unchecked it earlier.

First, a short-short critique of the poem: it relatively is completely prosaic and what ambiguities are in it relatively is going to be imported by making use of the reader. 2d, it relatively is an marvelous fact of a reader's assessment of the consequence of ambiguity modern in a poem. For you, ambiguity is effectual--for this reason warranted use--whilst it purposes like a magician's scarf, a non everlasting reveal screen over the secret revealed with a flourish. --------------- i do unlike ambiguity for the sake of ambiguity. I prefer that the poem have a sparkling 'take place purpose,' something the reader can see or hear truthfully on the 1st (and probable in simple terms) reading. I do even nonetheless take excitement in a poem featuring 'complementary ambiguities,' secondary or tertiary interpretations of words or words that help or assessment with the 1st interpretation--that right this moment apprehended 'overt' message of the poem. yet it relatively is complicated business enterprise, as you little doubt understand.
