Here is an icon I made to use for Blue Box on my Vista laptop.
I made it myself after getting jelly at the 2500 cats having there own.
It will get full blast 256*256 Mac OS style.
Also goes down to 16*16 in size & works good w/ XP.
You can hack XP to get big icons if you have time on your hands.
Be warned changing icons is bad & addicting like smoking.

P.S. The picture is from Akai, so it took no skill just time. :lol:

Good question. I'd love to know the answer. I'll try something when I get home and
if it works, I'll share.

I did some research on changing Icons for removable drives. The answer is, unfortunately it's not that easy to use the icon under windows as easy it is using it under mac os.. It's not like just choosing it as an icon from the Disk's Properties Menue. No, you have to use extra software or do some registry editing to make it work. That's not somethng I'm willing to put time into. But thx anyway for creating and sharing it.
