That is just how windows displays the preview of the .ico file itself. Assign the icon to a file/link and it should show correctly.

well i did and it didnt make a difference...

also just tried yours Lotesdelere, didnt work as well...i can only guess that my pc is somewhat fked up.
thanks for the help anyway

just got myself a g27 recently, all i needed to do was to set wheel rotation too 900° in the logitech profiler (options -> global settings) then it did just fine in all games.
also check that u have wheel turn compensation set to 0!

i can also approve the [AMG] Servers for fast and mostly clean racing.
if there is a problem, an admin is always around the corner an clears it up.
recommended.

Just rented a Server from them, great Support!
And not to mention...its darn cheap.

I'm using Win7 Pro 64bit and works for me.
You could also try Desktop Icon Toy that lets you make icons and/or text invisible, along with making shapes on your desktop.
If you do try that program, the layout settings are accessed using right click via the icon in the windows notification tray/area.
Using this will do all your desktop icons at once, rather than having to do them one at a time.

Well then id need to know what the heck im doing wrong
Also tried that Tool you suggested, but that blanks out the entire desktop, instead of just the Icons...and it made my Explorer crash twice

Hmm...shows up as black also...im confused.
Tried also both Win classic, and Win 7 aero, just to see if it makes any difference...but it doesnt.

Quote from sinanju :

Done this by accident before....

Right click desktop icon
Properties
Customize tab
Change Icon button
Scroll along till you see a blank space between icons (about 13 columns)
click on blank space between visible icons (there are about 4 spaces)
click ok
click Apply
click ok
If icon doesn't disappear, then refresh screen

Thats what i already tried...gives me a black background.
Every single of them.

What i actually want is a cleaner Desktop...
All i want to see of my Folders is the Letters, but not the Folder itself.
I tried using "blank" icons available in the selection, but they give me a black Background.

Tried myself to do it in Gimp, but failed...i just dont know how to do it
Any help would be appreciated

2 late...gotta work early D:

did a much needed cleanup...
