The easiest thing to do is go through your folders, right click the folder, go to Send To, then select Desktop (Creat Shortcut) Rick.

Is that what you're looking to do?

IconX should convert any and all icons on the default desktop to IconX icons.

You don't add more icons to IconX.  You add icons to yoru desktop and they are IconX-ified.  ;)

I started IconX and load a theme  . . and all my desktop icons are IconX'd
Open up Windows Explorer and drag a few shortcuts to the desktop . . they get IconX'd.

The last tab of the config adjusts what default icons are displayed.

You are using XP, right?

If you made an transparent png and put it in the background folder it'd disappear.
