You should be able to hit 'browse' and select another folder. I have also wondered about this default location. On Gentoo, /usr/share/pixmaps is populated with the most basic and visually unappealing icons I've encountered. I think it would make more sense to default this to ~/.icons ( or ~/.icons/$CURRENT_THEME ) but perhaps there is a good reason why /usr/share/pixmaps is the default. You can make 'shortcuts' or 'places' or whatever they are, to folder locations, by dragging the folder to the left-hand pane when you've got 'places' mode activated in the left-hand pane in Nautilus. So at least this makes it faster to navigate to your icon folder. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: dkasak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
