   Customizing Folders for Images   
   When you create a new subfolder in the My Pictures folder, it   
   automatically inherits all of Windows Explorer's image-handling tools.   
   But you can customize any folder to have these tools as well. Say, for   
   instance, that you keep a collection of logos and product pictures in a   
   subfolder on your drive D. Here's how to customize this folder so it   
   includes Filmstrip view and the Picture Tasks list:   
      
   Right-click the folder icon and choose Properties.   
   On the Customize tab, choose Pictures from the Use This Folder Type As A   
   Template list.   
   If you want to organize image files in subfolders, select Also Apply   
   This Template To All Subfolders.   
   To define a custom image that will appear on the folder in Thumbnails   
   and Filmstrip views, click the Choose Picture button and select an image   
   file. If you skip this step, Windows Explorer will display the last four   
   images modified. Note that the image you define here will become part of   
   the template for this folder and will appear on every subfolder you   
   create as well.   
   To add a custom icon to identify the folder in all other views, click   
   the Change Icon button and select an icon file. (To see an example, look   
   at the custom My Music and My Pictures icons in the My Documents folder.)
