@James,

You’re absolutely right! Customizing program and folder icons can be a fun way to personalize your computer’s appearance. However, it’s important to be careful when changing icons, such as the trash bin.

Picking the wrong icon for these elements can lead to unexpected issues, especially when it comes to functionality.

I often change both program icons and folder icons. Yet be careful with change of state icons like the trash bin which can show full or empty, they may not function properly if you choose the wrong icon.

I had no idea Nautilus could do this! Changing folder icons makes it so much easier to find what I need on my desktop.

This article was incredibly helpful! I’ve always wanted to personalize my Ubuntu desktop and make it more organized, and I had no idea it was so easy to change individual folder icons using Nautilus.
