how to add system icon for all users

[Guest Mac]

Hi,

Let me preface this with I'm a graphics guy, not a technical one so forgive

me if I sound like an idiot. I've created 4 new icons (.ico files) for our

small department to use as folder icons on our department shared drive.

Another person in the dept has the icon files saved to her desktop too, and

we can each change the folder icons on our respective computers, but the

folders I create in the shared drive show up on her computer with the default

Windows folder icon just as folders she creates appear with the default icon

on my screen.

 

If I change a folder icon to one of Windows other standard icons, all of us

see it the same way, so my guess is our new icons need to be saved somewhere

else, perhaps on the server?

 

QUESTION: Is it possible to save new .ico files so that when I make a folder

using one of the new icons on our shared drive, everyone who has access to

that drive sees the new icon as well? We use Windows Vista.

 

Thanks!
