Create Your Own Icons

Here’s How:

1. Click Start, Programs, Accessories, and Paint.
2. In the Paint window, choose Image, Attributes.
3. Make the Height and Width 32 pixels, and click OK.
4. Click View, Zoom, and then Show Grid.
5. Click View, Zoom, and Custom.
6. Choose 800% and click OK.
7. Create your new icon. Save it as a bitmap (bmp) file.
8. You can change its extension later to .ico, if you like.
9. You can now treat this file as a regular icon file.

When you replace a Desktop icon with one you made yourself, you don’t need to refer to it by anything other than its filename.

3 facts about Microsoft Windows

1. Nobody can create a folder named “Con”. Try to create anywhere on your hard disk a folder called “Con” (without the quotes). Go to a location on your hard disk, right click, choose “New” and then select “Folder” from the menu that appears. Name the folder “Con” (without quotes) and hit Enter. You’ll see that the folder won’t be named “Con“. It will be “New folder” 2. A text file made with Notepad, with the following content : “Bush hid the facts” (without quotes) won’t display the actual text. Go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad .

You’ll see that the text you just wrote and save won’t show. 3. Write in Word this : “=rand(200,99)” (without the quotes) and witness the magic.
